ActivTrades to Offer Fractional CFD Shares and to Introduce Investor Profiles

ActivTrades, the award-winning, multi-asset global forex broker, is pleased to announce that is offering Fractional CFD shares and introducing Investor profiles.

What advantages do Fractional CFD Shares offer?

The basic idea is that investors only buy parts of a single CFD share. For example, they buy 1/10 or 1/100. This allows smaller investors to diversify their portfolios and buy stocks that otherwise will be too expensive for them. So, instead of acquiring one Amazon share for 3000 euros, you can invest 30 euros in one Fractional CFD share and the rest of your finances to go for other attractive Fractional CFD shares, thus building a bigger, more diversified portfolio.

How can shareholders invest in Fractional CFD shares?

Having a savings plan is a good start. With as low as 50- or 100 euros traders can buy Fractional CFD shares monthly, wait for the return, reinvest, and slowly but surely build a diversified portfolio. ActivTrades is among the few brokers enabling the buying of Fractional CFD shares. Besides, the company offers, a whole range of trading options including over 1000 CFD and Spread Betting instruments across Forex, Indices, Shares, Commodities, Financials, and ETFs. We see ourselves as a broker who caters to beginners as well as professionals, retail, and institutional broker alike.

What platforms can clients use to invest in Fractional CFD shares?

The brokerage offers the world’s most popular trading platform: MetaTrader, enhanced with Smart Tools developed exclusively for our customers. The company has also developed its own in-house trading tool called ActivTrader – an intuitive and fully-featured platform designed for all levels of trading experience and available on desktops, smartphones, and tablets. In addition, our clients can take advantage of our TradingView integration for the ActivTrader platform. The TradingView Chart has already earned its place as an industry standard amongst traders and investors, and the integration is the result of our continuous efforts to bring the best trading experience through the ActivTrader platform. The chart enables end-users to both track the market in a convenient way, as well as to analyze it using a range of tools and indicators. The TradingView Chart has many advantageous features, which include: 12 chart types, including Renko, Kagi, and Point & Figure, up to 8 charts per tab with various functionalities, custom time intervals – any possible timeframe, including seconds and range bars, 100+ tools for technical analysis, and the ability to trade from the chart.

What is an Investor profile?

The Investor profile is a 0% commission setup for stock investors who trade without leverage. In other words, one can trade stock and ETFs 1:1 leverage-free, and permanently free of charge. We do not charge commissions on Investor profiles, nor do we have custody fees. This is particularly useful for Day and Swing traders, and "Buy-and-hold" clients, since it provides lower returns due the lack of leverage, commissions, and holding costs that lose performance.

CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 74% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
