Trading Options with WH Selfinvest

WH Selfinvest offer their clients almost unlimited trading options. Minimum deposit is 2.500 Euros. The deposit is not transferred to the broker itself but to an independet bank account with postbank or barclays. As an investor you have the choice between the following financial instruments:

CFDs
Forex
Futures

As a trader you can easily set on rising or falling rates of stocks, indices and commodities by means of CFDs (Contract for Difference). If the trader for example buys stocks in forms of cfds he isn't the actual possessor of the stocks but has the right to profit from rising or falling rates when the stocks are being sold or bought.

Commodity Trading with WH Selfinvest

By means of CFDs you have access to many commodities:

Crude oil, gas, heating oil, natural gas
Gold, silver, copper, platinum, palladium
Cocoa, coffee, sugar, orange juice, live stock, pork, cotton, soybean, corn, wheat

Using the leverage

As with other forex brokers you needn't deposit the whole value of the chosen instrument. The broker just needs a small margin as a security payment. If you would like to invest for example in stock cfds you just need to deposit 10 per cent of the actual trading amount, with commodities it is even only 5 per cent or less. An example: If you want to buy BMW stocks worth 43.000 Euros you just have to deposit 4.300 (10 %) as a security. The leverage with WH Selfinvest is thus 1:100.

DAX30-CFD trading - 24/7

To date it wasn't possible for traders because of the opening hours of the markets to trade DAX30 round the clock. What is new with WH Selfinvest: Trade 24/7 DAX30. Now you can open positions at night or before the acutal opening hour if you expect any signals from the market.
