The difference between trading assets and CFDs
The biggest difference between CFD trading and trading assets, such as commodities and stocks, is that you do not own the underlying asset when trading on a CFD.
You can still take advantage of if the market moves in your favor, or make a loss if it moves towards you. But with traditional trading, you enter into a contract to exchange the legal ownership of the individual shares or commodities for money, and you own this until you sell it again.
CFDs are leveraged products, which means you only need to deposit a percentage of the total value of the CFD trade to open a position. But with traditional trading, you buy the assets for the full amount. In the UK, there is no stamp duty on CFD trading, but there is when you buy stocks for example.
CFDs incur overnight costs to hold trades (unless you use 1-1 leverage), making them more suitable for short-term trading opportunities. Shares and commodities are bought more normally and held longer. You can also pay a broker commission or fees when you buy and sell assets directly and you need somewhere to store them safely.
