FAQ

Stocks are securities that reflect ownership in a company and give the right for a part of a company’s profit and assets. Over the last several decades, interest in trading these assets has significantly increased. Traders keep switching from classic online investments in currencies and commodities to a more understandable and comfortable environment for stock trading.

It’s essential for a trader to have an overall picture of what is happening on the market if they want to make efficient investments. This becomes even more important when it comes to trading stocks: a trader has to monitor not only the market behaviour, but also follow the news published by the company, along with its development and stability. In this respect, a trader needs to perfectly combine different tools of technical and fundamental analysis in order to be able to track many various indicators.

The terms "stocks" and "shares" have a similar meaning, and are often used interchangeably, particularly in American English.

The difference is that "stocks" appear to be a more general term referring to the piece of ownership in a company or several companies.

On the other hand, "shares" mean the same thing, but it is mostly used to describe ownership in a particular company.

For example:

  • I invest in stocks.
  • I invest in Apple shares.

While these terms can be used as synonyms in a standard description of financial markets, be aware that they have more distinctive meanings in some countries and languages.

Depending on their traded volumes, liquidity, volatility, and spread values, stocks can be divided into three groups: blue chips, mid-caps and small-caps.

Blue chips are commonly believed to be the most reliable and liquid. These are stocks of major global companies, such as Apple, Microsoft, Google, Coca-Cola, IBM, General Motors, etc.

Mid-cap and small-cap stocks are less liquid although they can sometimes be more promising.

Securities of famous companies do not always yield the highest profit, however, when it comes to investments, they are considered the least risky if compared with mid-caps and small-caps. It might be a wise decision to create a portfolio that consists of assets of different types.

More conservative traders prefer to trade stocks of American companies because the US market is thought to be more stable and liquid over the past decade. But certainly, if you want to try some "exotics", you can add some European or Japanese stocks to your portfolio.

Traders who are interested in trading stocks are divided into three categories:

  • Passive (for reliability and stability), who prefer "blue chips"
  • Active (for the highest possible profit with moderate risks), who mostly prefer "blue chips", but could also go for mid-caps and small-caps
  • Speculators (for early income, short-term buying/selling), who choose the most liquid “blue chips”

Being more reliable and liquid securities, “blue chips” may be considered the ultimate instruments suitable for all traders who are interested in trading stocks regardless of their strategies. It’s important to understand that trading mid-cap and small-cap stocks requires traders to have advanced knowledge and impressive experience in trading on the financial markets. It is not recommended for beginners to add them to their portfolio, because injudicious actions may result in loss of some or all of their investments.

Please note that there is a difference between CFDs and stocks as financial instruments.

Stocks are traded on regulated exchanges, and buying them gives you ownership of a portion of the share capital of the company you are investing in, with all the ensuing consequences.

CFDs on stocks are financial derivatives and their purchase does not result in ownership of the underlying asset.

According to Section C (1) of Annex I to Directive 2014/65 / EU, stocks are transferable securities, while CFDs, in accordance with Section C (9) of Annex I to Directive 2014/65 / EU, are financial contracts for difference.

Make sure you understand the difference and how it affects your trading.
