An introduction to CFDs and FX Trading

What are the risks?

Although trading CFDs and FX offers advantages over traditional share dealing it is important to remember that these are leveraged products which mean you can lose more money than your initial deposit.

RBS Spread Trading provide a wide range of risk management tools such as guaranteed stops, so make sure you understand how they work and when to use them - and most importantly start trading with small amounts.
