OpenTrading offers various account types tailored to different trading needs. The primary types of accounts include:
CFD Trading Account: This account allows you to speculate on the price movements of various markets, including stocks, commodities, forex, cryptocurrencies, indices, ETFs, and ADRs. It enables leveraged trading, meaning you can control larger positions with a smaller initial deposit (margin).
Share Dealing Account: This account allows you to buy and sell shares outright, providing ownership of the assets. You can also reinvest dividends earned from company stocks.
Leveraged Trading Account: Similar to the CFD account, this account provides exposure to various markets without taking ownership of the underlying assets, allowing for speculation on short-term price movements.
