Interactive Brokers Group, Inc. announced the expansion of its overnight trading offering to include Contracts for Difference (CFDs) on US stocks and ETFs. In addition to US Stocks, ETFs, and Index Options, this expansion allows clients to trade CFDs on US equities around the clock, five days a week, providing exceptional flexibility and access to US markets. The introduction of US stock CFDs to overnight trading builds on Interactive Brokers' commitment to offering clients comprehensive and innovative trading solutions.
Clients can now trade CFDs on over 3,500 US stocks and ETFs during overnight trading hours, from 8:00 pm to 3:50 am ET, Sunday to Friday. This new offering is particularly valuable for global investors, enabling them to react to news and market events in real time, regardless of their local time zone. With overnight trading of CFDs on US stocks and ETFs, Interactive Brokers continues to empower its clients with the tools needed to succeed in a global financial environment.
CFDs provide an alternative to traditional stock trading with margin, offering leveraged exposure to the US equity market without owning the underlying asset. With lower margin requirements and no borrowing costs, traders can manage risk more effectively and optimize capital efficiency.
