What it means in practice
You trade on margin: you put up a fraction of the notional exposure as collateral while the platform reflects live market prices. That means you can express both long and short ideas with the same workflow, compare spreads and costs for your profile, and size positions in line with your risk plan—rather than tying up the full value of the asset.
CFDs are complex instruments and carry a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. You should ensure you understand how margin, leverage, and funding interact before you trade.
