Index trading is the buying and selling of a group of stocks that make up an index, such as our UK 100 index (based on the FTSE 100), which tracks the largest 100 companies on the London Stock Exchange.
Trading on indices is popular with short-term traders who want to speculate on highly-liquid assets, with tight spreads and minimal slippage. Speculating on indices offers traders exposure to a wide range of stocks.
You can open an equities, spread betting or CFD account to trade on our proprietary web-based trading platform and native app. If you open a CFD account, you can choose to link it to TradingView.
To spread bet or trade CFDs on MetaTrader 4, you'll need to create a separate account. This account doesn't provide access to TradingView. Note: on MT4, you can trade on forex, indices and commodities, but not shares, ETFs, rates or bonds.
