Commission on trading Crypto

The choice between CFDs and Futures CFDs depends on your trading strategy and goals:

  • Short-term traders may prefer regular CFDs for their flexibility and ability to hold positions indefinitely.
  • Traders focused on longer-term trends or those who want to avoid overnight fees might opt for Futures CFDs, as they have set expiration dates.
