Risk warning. CFDs and leveraged products are complex and high-risk. In the broker disclosures we track, 65% to 81% of retail investor accounts lose money trading CFDs (figures by entity, read September 2026). Whether losses can exceed your deposit depends on the entity that onboards you: negative-balance protection is mandatory for retail clients under FCA, ESMA and ASIC rules, not at every offshore entity. Only trade with money you can afford to lose.
