Indices
Indices are the most popular form of CFDs. 4Xhub offers a large range
of Indices from around the world to choose from, including the
Australia 200 Index, EU Stocks 50 Index, France 40 Index.
A stock index is a good indicative measure of market performance.
Indices such as the UK 100 Index and US SPX 500 Index are baskets of blue chip
stocks listed on the exchange and are generally a good measure of the
current market sentiment. A change in the performance of any
constituent stock in an index is reflected in a change in the overall
value of that index.
Indices have the advantage of allowing traders to take a wider view of a basket of stocks rather than taking a view on one individual stock alone. CFD based indices are offered on our MT4 Platform.

How to determine if a client is entitled dividend?
The value of rollover fees is the combination of cost of carry and dividend of the underlying CFDs (if applicable). Currently, it is not possible to separate the dividend as part of the rollover fees. If a component company of an index pays dividend, your long positions are paid that dividend while your short positions are charged. Dividend is typically 10-100 times the size of typical daily cost of carry.
Indices example
The gross profit on your trade is calculated as follows:
Opening Price
4,951
Closing Price
4,970
Difference
19
Gross Profit on Trade
19.00 points x 2 contracts ($2 per point) = AUD $38.00
Opening the Position
The price of the Australia 200 Index is 4,950.00/4,951.00. You are
of the view that blue-chip stocks are undervalued so you decide to
buy 2 contracts at 4,951.00. (One contract is equal to $1 per index
point). No commission is charged on Indices.
For every point that the bid quote on the Australia 200 Index rises
above 4,951.00 you will make a profit of $2 AUD, for every point the
bid quote falls below 4,951.00 you will lose $2 AUD.
Closing the Position
Four days later, the Australia 200 Index has risen to 4,970.00/4,971.00 and you decide to take your profit. You close your position by selling 2 contracts at 4,970.00.
