A cryptocurrency is a form of digital currency created from code that functions outside of traditional banking and government systems. You can read more about cryptocurrencies here.
You can trade CFDs on a range of cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin/USD, Ethereum/USD, Litecoin/USD, XRP/USD and meme coins such as TRUMP/USD. View the full list of cryptocurrencies available to trade here.
You can view the full list of cryptocurrency CFDs available to trade on the platform under Products, then Crypto.
To close or reduce a position on the CMC Markets Platform, select the red ‘X’ under ‘CFD Positions’ to bring up an order ticket.
To close ‘All’ trades in a specific product, select ‘X’ on the aggregate row, or to close an individual trade, select ‘X’ on the individual position row. To partially close a position, you will need to enter the ‘Size’ of the trade to close (the default value is the full size of the position). The wording at the bottom of the ticket will change to indicate that you are reducing your position rather than closing it.
No. A cryptocurrency wallet is used to store and manage cryptocurrencies directly. When you trade cryptocurrency CFDs, you do not buy or hold the underlying cryptocurrency. Instead, you trade on the price movement of the cryptocurrency through your CMC Markets account, so you do not need a digital wallet.
Cryptocurrency CFDs are available to trade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, subject to occasional maintenance or downtime.
Crypto CFD trading is available almost 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, subject to a brief ten‑minute pause each Sunday at 13:00 AEDT (from 1st of February 2026), which is used for essential server optimisation, and any other occasional maintenance or downtime which may be required from time to time. This short break helps ensure the platform stays stable and reliable, so clients continue to receive a high‑quality trading experience.
For any weekend cryptocurrency CFD support enquiries please contact the team via the chat function in your CMC Markets Platform. If you are trading cryptocurrency CFDs on a weekend via MT4 and require support, please access this through your customer hub.
When you hold a cryptocurrency CFD position, you may incur a holding cost. Holding costs vary by product and are charged for maintaining an open CFD position after the trading day ends. For further information on how holding costs are calculated, please refer to our Product Disclosure Statement and Financial Services Guide or Information Memorandum (for CMC Pro).
To check current rates, please refer to the Product Library on the CMC Markets Platform.
Forks occur when the software of different miners disagree over the best way forward for the currency. It’s up to miners to decide which blockchain to continue using. If there isn’t a unanimous decision, this can result in the creation of two versions of the blockchain. There can be periods of increased price volatility around such events. You can read more on blockchain forks here.
The price of CMC Markets’ cryptocurrency CFDs is based on the underlying market. They are made available to us by the exchanges and market-makers with which we trade. In the event of a hard fork, CMC Markets will generally follow the blockchain that has the majority consensus of cryptocurrency users. We reserve the right to determine which cryptocurrency unit has the majority consensus.
