CFDs (Contracts for Difference) are financial derivatives that let you speculate on the price movements of various underlying assets but you don’t own the underlying asset. When trading CFDs, you’ll enter a contract to exchange the difference in the asset's price between the opening and closing of the trade. When you open a trade, you can choose how many contracts you wish to buy or sell for the asset and the total value of your position is decided by the number of contracts you choose, multiplied by the value of each contract.

CFDs allow you to profit from an increase in the value of an underlying asset or a decrease in its value.This is done without owning the underlying asset, making it an efficient way to gain exposure to price movements without the costs of physical ownership.
In CFD trading, you can take advantage of leverage to increase your potential profit. You can do this because you only have to pay for a portion of your position when executing a CFD trade. The downside to this is that it also increases your potential risk, but this can still be a powerful trading tool if used well.
While CFDs are free from stamp duty, you may be required to pay capital gains tax on any profits you make from CFD trading. But you can reduce your total taxable profit by deducting your losses from your profits, to reduce your total potential capital gains tax.
