Stock Trading FAQ
What are Stocks & Shares
For all intents and purposes, stocks and shares refer to the same thing. They are a type of security defined as part ownership in a company, usually, one that is publicly listed. This gives the owner of the share an entitlement to the corporation’s earnings and assets, voting rights in major decisions about the company at the Annual General Meeting (AGM), and a dividend payment if there is one (effectively a proportion of the company’s profits). Furthermore, if the company is run profitably and successfully, the hope is that the company’s share price will rise, and the owner of the share will make a capital gain on the value of their shareholding. Stocks and shares are primarily bought and sold on Stock Exchanges.
How to trade Stocks with Hantec Markets
Stocks and shares can be traded with Hantec Markets as Contracts for Difference (CFDs), and as with any trading, you’ll be looking to buy low and/or sell high.
The decision to buy or to sell can be derived from either fundamental or technical analysis and should be part of a trading strategy that you’ve already tried and tested. Opening a demo account to refine a trading plan for stock CFDs is highly recommended.
As a trader, you should have a good understanding of the influences on the market you want to trade-in. You should also build a robust trading plan and set strict risk limits. You should establish an exit stop-loss and look to constrain any losses to within predefined limits.
