What Is Libertex CFD?
Libertex CFD is designed for active traders who want to take advantage of short-term market movements. With this account, you don't buy the underlying asset. Instead, you trade using Contracts for Difference (CFDs), allowing you to speculate on both rising and falling prices across a wide range of financial instruments.
With a Libertex CFD account, you can:
Trade stocks, cryptocurrencies, currencies, indices, and more
Use leverage (multiplier) to increase your market exposure
Buy or sell (go long or short) depending on your market outlook
Set pending orders to automate your trading strategy
Test your strategies risk-free with a demo account
Access the status system to unlock additional benefits
