Expecting big things from crypto? We’ve grouped different cryptocurrencies together to create three new crypto baskets, allowing you to trade on multiple cryptos with a single position.
A contract for difference is a financial derivative product that pays the difference in settlement price between the opening and closing of a trade. CFD trading enables you to speculate on the rising or falling prices of fast-moving global financial markets (or instruments) such as shares, indices, commodities, currencies and treasuries.
'Ether' is the digital currency used on the Ethereum network. Like Bitcoin, Ethereum works via a public blockchain network; while Bitcoin is used to track ownership of currency, the Ethereum blockchain focuses on running the programming code of any decentralized application.
The risks of trading cryptocurrencies are mainly related to its volatility. They are high-risk and speculative, and it is important that you understand the risks before you start trading.

A cryptocurrency is a type of digital money created from code. They function autonomously, outside of traditional banking and government systems.
Cryptocurrency trading is the process of speculating on a digital currency’s price movements. Exposure to cryptocurrencies’ price movements can be achieved without owning the asset via a CFD trading account, or can be bought and sold on crypto exchanges.
See our cryptocurrency trade examples.
There are a number of costs to consider when trading CFDs on cryptocurrencies, including holding costs (for trades held overnight – this is essentially a fee for the funds we ‘lend you’ to cover the leveraged portion of the trade) and guaranteed stop-loss order charges (if you use this risk-management tool).
Cryptocurrency CFDs are available to trade 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, subject to occasional maintenance or downtime.
When you place a CFD trade with CMC Markets you may incur a holding cost. The transaction holding cost is the cost of ‘holding’ the value of the unfunded portion of a trade. For full details of how holding costs are calculated, please refer to our Product Disclosure Statement and other related documents.
