CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. Between 74-89% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading CFDs. You should consider whether you understand how CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money.
There are a lot of CFD and forex brokers. Some of them offer a free demo account which allows you to test the trading platform before opening a real account. Choosing a suitable broker or comparing brokers isn't always easy. First and foremost you should only choose a well regulated broker, this limits the chances of being scammed. Other things to keep in mind are the functions you desire on the trading platform, minimum deposit, counterparty risk,... And do they offer webinars and seminars, education, daily analysis, trading signals,...?
Funding your account and withdrawing money is easy with a Skrill account, which is accepted by most brokers.
All EU regulated brokers offer negative balance protection for retail traders! On the other hand, the leverage is maximum 30.
