What is index trading?
A stock index measures the combined value of a basket of shares — the S&P 500 tracks 500 large US companies, the FTSE 100 the largest London listings. Trading the index lets you express a view on a whole market without picking individual stocks.
Index CFDs mirror the price of the underlying benchmark, so when the headline number rises or falls, your position moves with it. One ticket gives you diversified, sector-spanning exposure that would take dozens of share trades to replicate.
Bondricks quotes cash and futures-style index products with transparent points spreads, letting you trade the open, hedge a portfolio, or position around central-bank and earnings events with precision.

FAQ
Indices trading — your questions answered
A cash index tracks the spot benchmark and is adjusted for overnight financing; a futures-style index references a dated contract and embeds carry into the price instead. Both are available as CFDs at Bondricks.
The most-traded benchmarks — the S&P 500 (US500) and DAX 40 (GER40) — tend to offer the tightest spreads and deepest liquidity, which makes execution more predictable while you learn.
Yes. Shorting an index your holdings track is a common way to offset broad market risk without selling the underlying shares and triggering a taxable event.
Out-of-hours index products price off futures and related instruments, so the quote reflects sentiment and news even while the cash market that underlies it is shut.
When constituent companies go ex-dividend, a corresponding adjustment is applied to open index positions so you are neither advantaged nor disadvantaged by the payout.
