Trading indices and futures — Starter

An index packs the mood of an entire market into a single instrument. Futures add standardisation, leverage and expiry dates on top of it.

What this level covers

• Index composition and weighting: what you are really tracking
• CFDs, ETFs or futures: three very different ways in
• Contract size, point value, initial margin and maintenance margin
• How expiries and rollovers actually work
• Trading hours and the risk of an opening gap

Who it's for: no prerequisites, though some market background helps.
