TRADABLE MARKETS

Indices

Indices are a type of investment that has been gaining popularity in recent years. An index is typically defined as a portfolio of stocks that represents a particular market or market sector. Thus, indices (also known as stock indexes) measure the price performance of a group of stocks in a specific section of the stock market. For example, the US500 is based on the 500 largest companies weighted mainly by market capitalization that are listed on the New York Exchange or NASDAQ.

Why trade Indices?
  • Portfolio diversification​
Investing in indices can be an effective way to diversify your portfolio and spread risk across a variety of market sectors.
  • High liquidity 
Indices are highly liquid assets, which means that you can easily buy and sell them on the market.
  • Long trading hours 
The stock market is open for trading for long hours, which means that you can trade indices at a time that suits you.
  • Hedge against volatility 
As indices are made up of multiple stocks, they can be less volatile than individual stocks, providing a hedge against market volatility.
