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.

Pepperstone: CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Between 73.6% and 80% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with Pepperstone, depending on the entity that onboards you (Pepperstone Limited 73.6%, Pepperstone EU Limited 74.1%, Pepperstone GmbH 76.1%, Pepperstone Markets Limited 80%; figures read on the entity sites 2026-10-13). You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
