Let's face it; if you are interested in the financial markets, you've probably seen the Wolf of Wall Street. You've probably also imagined what it would be like to live in that world.

Well, you don't have to travel all the way to New York for that because you can trade shares as CFDs directly from the comfort of your home!

A share (or stock) is a security that represents ownership of a percentage of a company.

In the actual stock market, you would have to physically buy a share, wait for the price to rise, and then sell it to turn a profit. If the share's price went down, you would have to either take a loss or wait for it to recover. However, since we are trading shares as CFDs, things are a bit different.

Since we are trading on the value of the product and not the physical product, we can profit from the share regardless of the direction of the price, by buying if the price is appreciating and selling if the price is depreciating.

Popular examples of shares offered by Amega include:

  • Tesla (TSLA)

  • Amazon (AMZN)

  • Apple inc. (AAPL)

  • Netflix (NFLX)


💡Tip

Look out for new product releases or business announcements from your favorite companies. They can drive share prices up or down significantly!
