What our Traders say about us
Why Trade Cryptocurrencies?
- Decentralized
Cryptocurrencies are seldom affected by policy changes or geopolitical instability – and we have seen markets treat it as a safe-haven because of this.
- Active
Cryptocurrencies are extremely active compared to traditional currencies. Prices can change remarkably within days or even hours. This creates a new frontier for trading.
- More Choice
Each market has its own benefits and disadvantages, knowing when and in what combination these should be taken advantage of can optimize your trading strategy.
- New Opportunity
We have seen cryptos enter the mainstream, skyrocket to five figures and plummet within a few months. CFDs allow you to both buy and sell the underlying cryptocurrency.
- Ethereum and Bitcoin are digital currencies based on blockchain ledger technology
- Ripple is based on a payment protocol
- Cryptocurrencies prices are driven largely by supply and demand
- No exchange account or digital wallet necessary
- Trade immediately online, no need to wait for buyers or sellers
- Not as heavily effected by central bank policy, geopolitics or political instability
- One of the most innovative and active markets today
