Share trading explained
Buying shares online means acquiring a stake in one or more companies. As a shareholder, you effectively gain part-ownership in that enterprise. For traders, however, investing in shares is a way to profit from the success of that company and overall economic growth.
By trading shares with CfdProai, you can use derivative products to speculate on the future share price of a company. The value of the derivative is based on the underlying market, allowing you to take either a long or short position depending on your prediction of how the stock will perform.
A derivative product means you don’t actually own the stock. However, it enables you to take a position that allows you to profit from any change in the stock's value—whether it rises or falls. It also allows you to start online share trading with leverage, requiring only a fraction of the capital needed to trade the actual shares.
Investing in shares: How does it work?
With CfdProai, you can open a share trading account and start trading in the equity market today. All trading is done using derivatives known as contracts for difference (CFDs). Instead of becoming an owner of the shares, you’ll simply take a position on whether the price will rise or fall.
One reason share trading is growing in popularity is that you don't need large sums of money to get started. CFD trading provides full market exposure with a smaller upfront investment through leverage. The key is predicting which direction the share price will move.
```With a CFD, you'll agree to exchange the difference in share price from when you open your position to when you close it. If the price moves in the direction you predicted, you'll profit. However, if the price moves in the opposite direction, your investment will result in a loss.
Example of how investing in shares with a CFD can work:
- Trader A makes a $1,000 trade on Company B's share price at $10.00
- Trader A predicts that the price will rise to $12.50
- Trader A buys 100 contracts at $10.00 per share
- Company B's share price increases to $12.50
- The initial trade value is $1,000, but the final value is $1,250
Before charges and commission, Trader A makes a gross profit of $250.

What is equity trading?
First, a 'share' represents a single unit of ownership, whereas 'equity' refers to the total stake you hold in a company, meaning more than one share. For example, owning three shares means your total equity is three shares.
The second difference lies in the usage of the terms 'shares' and 'equities'. Typically, you hold 'shares' in a single company, but 'equities' can refer to the total amount you own in two or more companies.
In summary, equity trading involves buying and selling the total stakes you own in a company.
Why do people trade stocks and shares?
The factors to look out for when trading stocks and shares
- Share supply and demand: If shares in a company are in high demand, they can outweigh supply, causing the share price to rise.
- Company news or updates: Annual reports, profit warnings, or new product launches can drive a company's share price up or down.
- Broader economic factors: Economic announcements and policies, both nationally and internationally, can have a significant impact on share prices.
- Market and industry trends: This is more of a long-term factor, but major trends within a specific market can affect a company's price. For example, airline stocks were negatively impacted by reduced travel during the Covid-19 pandemic.
- Investor mood/confidence: In some cases, it can come down to the confidence that investors have in a particular company or sector. Sometimes, there may not be any tangible reason, which is why understanding investor sentiment is crucial.
