What is Share Trading?
A share represents a fractional claim on a publicly listed company. Share trading means buying and selling those claims on major exchanges — NYSE, NASDAQ, LSE, XETRA — to profit from price movement, dividends, or both.
How share CFDs work
A share CFD tracks the price of a real equity without transferring ownership. Going long profits from rising prices; short from falling. CFDs let you use leverage and short-sell without borrowing stock.
Types of shares
- US tech & mega-caps — Apple (AAPL), Tesla (TSLA), NVIDIA (NVDA), Microsoft. Deepest liquidity on NYSE & NASDAQ.
- UK blue-chips — BP, Vodafone, HSBC, Shell. Dividend-heavy FTSE 100 names.
- European majors — SAP, Volkswagen, LVMH, Siemens. Traded on XETRA, Euronext and other EU venues.
What moves share prices?
- Earnings & guidance — quarterly results and forward outlooks drive the biggest moves.
- Sector & macro — rates, sector rotation, AI themes and commodity cycles.
- Flows & news — M&A, upgrades/downgrades, insider selling and index rebalancing.
