3. What is this Product?
| Type: A contract for difference (“CFD”) is a popular form of derivative trading. The price of the CFD is derived from the price of the FX Pair. CFD trading allows a trader to speculate on rising or falling prices on any FX Pair. Even though you will never own the underlying asset, your return or loss depends on movements in the price of the underlying and the size of your position. This document provides key information on CFDs where the underlying investment option that you choose is an FX pair (for example EUR/USD). You can visit the website for information on the currency pairs available to you. |
Objective: The objective of trading CFDs is to gain a leveraged exposure to price movements and speculate on price movements (generally over the short term) in an underlying asset by obtaining an indirect exposure to the underlying asset. Your return depends on movements in the price of the underlying asset and the size of your stake. For example, if you believe the value of a Commodity s going to increase, you would buy a number of units of the CFD (this is also known as “going long”), with the intention to later sell them when they are at a higher value. The difference between the price at which you buy and the price at which you subsequently sell equates to your profit, minus any relevant costs (detailed below). If you think the value of a Commodity is going to decrease, you should sell a number of units of the CFD (this is also known as “going short”) at a specific value, expecting to later buy them back at a lower price than you previously agreed to sell them for, resulting in us paying you the difference, minus any relevant costs (detailed below).
Intended Retail Investor: CFDs are intended for investors who have knowledge of, or are experienced with, leveraged products and that understand how the prices of CFDs are derived, the key concepts of margin and leverage, the fact that losses may exceed deposits and have the appropriate financial means to bear losses of the entire amount invested.
| What are the risks and what could I get in return? |
| Risk indicator |
| The summary risk indicator is a guide to the level of risk of this product compared to other products. It shows how likely it is that the product will lose money because of movements in the markets or because we are unable to pay you. There is no recommended or minimum holding period for this product. You must maintain sufficient margin in your account to keep your positions open. Trading on margin means you could quickly lose your trading balance. |
| 1 Lower Risk | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 Higher Risk |
The summary risk indicator is a guide to the level of risk of this product compared to other products. It shows
how likely it is that the product will lose money because of movements in the markets. We have classified this product as 7 out of 7, which is the highest risk class. This is due to the chance that you could lose all of your trading balance.
Be aware of currency risk. It is possible to buy or sell CFDs on a commodity in a currency which is different to the base currency of your account. The final return you may get depends on the exchange rate between the two currencies. This risk is not considered in the indicator shown above.
Leveraged trading magnifies the losses of price movements and failure to deposit additional funds may result in the CFD being auto-closed. You are also subject to risks related to internet failures, communications failures and delays or account password theft.
This product does not include any protection from future market performance, so you could lose some or all of your investment. If we are not able to pay you what is owed, you could lose your entire investment. However, you may benefit from a consumer protection scheme (see the section “what happens if we are unable to pay you”). The indicator shown above does not consider this protection.
4. Performance scenarios*
This key information document is not specific to a particular product. It applies to a CFD on any FX pair that we offer on our platform. However, each CFD you enter into with us is specific to you and your choices. You will be responsible for choosing the currencies in the FX pair; when you open and close your position; the size of your position and your margin (subject to leverage limits for the CFD depending on the FX pair); and whether to use any risk mitigation features we offer such as stop loss orders. The table below shows the money you could potentially profit or lose under different scenarios. Each of the performance scenarios is based on an account with only one open position.
However, each scenario will also be impacted by any other open position(s) you have with us. These underlying products offered for each CFD will have a material impact on the risk and return of your investment. Specific information on our CFD is available at www.tradevexo.com/forex
