<p>AU Share CFDs (Contracts for Difference) are financial instruments that allow traders to speculate on the price movements of Australian listed companies without actually owning the underlying shares.</p>

What are AU Share CFDs?

<p>Yes, you can. Our range of AU shares include many of the main sectors found in the Australian stock market. For a full list of available AU companies to trade, please see the list above.</p>

Can I trade Consumer Cyclical and Consumer Defensive companies?

<p>The main benefit of using leverage is that it allows traders to increase their exposure to the market while only putting up a fraction of the total capital required. This means that potential profits can be multiplied, but it also means that potential losses can be magnified.</p>

What are the benefits of using leverage?

<h3>Forex</h3><p>When you trade forex, you trade in the most liquid market in the world. We offer majors, minors and exotics across a variety of markets so you can trade the FX market you know with low commissions and competitive spreads. We also place a heavy focus on a low latency, high-quality execution, with flexible leverage up to 1:30 and reliable trading infrastructure</p>

<h3>Commodities</h3><p>Trade commodities such as coffee, cocoa, cotton, orange juice, and sugar. You can also trade products such as gold, silver, platinum and palladium at low prices with no commission. Precious metals are a useful asset to diversify your trading strategy and are often flocked to as safe haven assets during times of market turmoil, usually in line with market cycles and inflation.<br/><br/>All of our energy trading instruments have minimum trade sizes from 10c per pip, flexible leverage of up to 1:10 and no commission. We offer both major oil markets - West Texas Intermediate crude oil and Brent crude oil - and natural gas in our range of energy products.</p>

<h3>Indices</h3><p>Trade on the movement of 14 major stock markets around the world without the dealing desk, commission-free. Our index CFDs have no hidden markups, no dealing desk, low latency and no re-quotes. Diversify your trading strategies and take advantage of different opportunities across global equity markets with indices, and leverage of up to 1:20.</p>

<h3>Currency Indices</h3><p>Trade direct changes in the value of a currency against a basket of other currencies. We offer the USDX,&nbsp;JPYX and EURX.&nbsp;It's the globally recognised benchmark for the value of the US dollar. It measures six major currencies against the USD and can be traded with leverage of up to 1:10.</p>

<h3>Shares</h3><p>Go long or short on top US shares such as Apple, Boeing, Tesla and Alibaba. Hedge your portfolio and trade in the after-market session with commissions from USD$0.02 per share.</p>
