Trading in a rising market
Trading in a bull market follows the expected long-term increase in the market price. Thus, traders will generally take a “buy” (so-called long) position, meaning they take a speculative position that corresponds to anticipating a continued price increase.
With this sentiment at the forefront of their concerns, traders could opt for long positions using leveraged derivatives such as CFDs.
With IG, you take a position using leverage, which means you only need to commit an initial deposit, called margin or margin, while gaining more exposure. Leverage can increase both your profits and your losses. It is therefore essential to properly manage your risk before taking a position.
