Indices Trading
Track the performance of global markets with index CFDs — trade the momentum of economies, sectors, and sentiment.
What is Indices Trading?
Indices represent the performance of a group of selected stocks from a particular market or sector. Trading index CFDs allows you to speculate on the movement of entire markets like the US 30 (Dow Jones), GER 40 (DAX), or UK 100 (FTSE) without owning the underlying assets.
At AUT INVESTMENTS LIMITED, we offer real-time access to leading global indices through a powerful, flexible trading platform — enabling retail and institutional traders to capitalize on market-wide trends, volatility, and economic cycles.
