Indices trading is a type of financial trading that involves buying and selling contracts based on the performance of an index such as the NASDAQ and S&P 500. Indices are measures of the performance of a group of stocks, and traders trade on them based on their expectations about the direction of the index's price movement.
Why trade indices?
High liquidity
Simply put, the movements of indices in the market depend on the movements of the underlying stocks that make up the indices. While stocks belonging to the same sector tend to trend in the same general direction, this means that in bullish times, for example, indices with a dominant representation of a particular sector react accordingly, making them more predictable.
Variety
When trading indices, you will not put all your eggs in one basket. It will allow you, based on the NASDAQ 100, to diversify your route across the world's most successful tech companies., trading the Euro Stoxx 50 allows you the opportunity to trade a top-tier representation of the Eurozone's "super-sector" leaders. As a result, when investing across a wide range of companies through a single asset, if one or more companies fail, the entire index can still rise.
