About & History
The concept of stock trading dates back to the 17th century, when the first public companies emerged. Historically, investing in shares required significant capital and complex brokerage arrangements. Today, HedgeHood offers a simplified approach through CFDs trading, allowing retail investors to participate in global stock markets without owning the actual shares and with far more flexibility.
How to profit
Success in Shares CFDs trading often involves a combination of fundamental and technical analysis. Traders monitor company earnings, industry developments, and broader market trends to identify opportunities. Strategies range from short-term plays around earnings announcements to longer-term trades based on sector performance or technical breakouts. The ability to go both long and short allows traders to respond to market movements in either direction.
