Dividends on Derivatives Indices

TOOLS

Discover a new dimension of trading with the introduction of dividends on derivatives indices. Our latest update enhances your trading experience by offering you even more ways to profit from the financial markets.

What are Dividends in Derivatives Indices?

Dividends on derivatives indices provide an additional income stream that can be earned by holding long positions on specific index derivatives. These dividends are based on the dividend payments made by the constituent companies within the index. With this new feature, you have the opportunity to benefit from dividend payouts while trading derivatives on popular indices.

Key Benefits

Additional Income

Earn dividend income by holding long positions on derivatives indices, boosting your overall trading performance.

Diversification

With dividend payments added to your derivatives trading, you can diversify your investment portfolio and explore new avenues for generating returns.

Enhanced Trading Strategies

The inclusion of dividends on derivatives Indices allows you to develop more sophisticated trading strategies. Consider dividend payouts and their potential impact on market sentiment and stock prices when making your trading decisions.

How Dividends will be handled

Long Positions

When you hold a long position on a derivative index that is eligible for dividends, you will receive a dividend adjustment credited to your trading account. The dividend adjustment is calculated based on the dividend amount and the number of derivatives contracts held. It's important to note that dividend adjustments may vary depending on market conditions and the specific index derivatives.

Short Positions

On the other hand, if you hold a short position on an eligible derivative index, a dividend adjustment will be deducted from your trading account. Similar to long positions, the dividend adjustment for short positions is calculated based on the dividend amount and the number of derivatives contracts held.
