See our cryptocurrency trade examples.

What costs are involved in trading cryptocurrencies?

There are a number of costs to consider when trading CFDs on cryptocurrencies, including holding costs (for trades held overnight – this is essentially a fee for the funds we ‘lend you’ to cover the leveraged portion of the trade) and guaranteed stop-loss order charges (if you use this risk-management tool).
