Contract For Difference. An odd thingy.

I disagree, get your £200 and start trading. 10k to start?!!! Are u joking!?
I guess risk management was never your strong suit.
%%I am really short on cash, I wont be able to put up $5k any time soon. I want exposure to stocks as I can screen them by volatility/largest movers and I can be more selective in what I trade. Is there no CFD broker that isnt just scamming you? Ive been looking and they mostly have bad reviews.

[WSJ article]Agreed! Micro Futures really has the volume and volatility but small moves in your account to really learn the market movements with different reports that are released and new reactions etc. I think they're great when you want to participate in the market but keep your risk minimal.Don't waste your money, save up $500 go Micro futures and learn to daytrade that.
Stocks through CFDs have huge spreads, from what I've seen, total rip off don't do it.
