Micro Contracts on Stock Indices

At IG Markets we are continually finding ways to make trading CFDs easier for you.

Recently we became the first CFD provider licensed in Singapore to offer commodity CFDs. And now you can trade on popular stock indices at even smaller contract sizes, allowing you to trade on major global indices for a fraction of the current cost. Follow the broad range of markets on offer from just $1 per index point:

  • Singapore Blue Chip
  • China H-Shares
  • Hong Kong HS34
  • Australia 200
  • Wall Street
  • US SPX500
  • US Tech 100

Our stock index contracts let you take a view on the level of the underlying market. Our price is based on the level of the underlying index, but has the added benefit of moving with the liquidity of a futures market. Advantages include:

Trading around the clock: We quote prices on leading stock indices even when the underlying market is closed, allowing you to trade around the clock.

Take a view of the whole market: With stock indices you take positions on the direction of a whole market rather than an individual company. So if you think the American market as a whole is due to turn around then you can take a position with our Wall Street contract.

Use Guaranteed Stops: You can trade stock indices with risk protection, so your maximum possible loss is known exactly in advance. Read more about guaranteed stops and our entire range of risk managment tools on our limit your risk page.
