- Moved from buying crypto spot to trading crypto СFDs - anyone else made this switch? Which broker are you on?
The author switched from buying crypto spot to trading crypto CFDs due to capital efficiency and flexibility. They tested several brokers, including Plus500, XTB, and Libertex, and preferred Libertex for its competitive spreads and decent range of crypto CFDs. The author now uses a hybrid approach, keeping core BTC/ETH in spot on a hardware wallet and using CFDs for shorter-term trades.
- Spent 2 months tracking CFD broker spreads - the differences are bigger than I expected
The author tracked spreads on four platforms for about two months and found significant differences in EUR/USD and DAX spreads. Platform C, a commission model regulated by CySEC and BaFin, offered the cheapest options for position sizes above €1,000. The author's findings suggest that commission models can be more cost-effective than spread-based brokers for larger trades.
