With CWG Markets, you can trade the most popular equity indices from markets across America, Europe, Asia, and Australia.

Whether you prefer to focus on a single market or diversify across multiple markets, CWG Markets provides the global access you need to optimise your trading strategy.
A stock index serves as a benchmark for market performance. Indices like the FTSE 100(UK100) and DJIA(US500) Index are composed of blue-chip stocks listed on major exchanges and reflect the overall market sentiment. The performance of any individual stock within an index affects the overall value of that index, making indices a reliable gauge of market trends.
Trading indices offers the advantage of gaining a broader perspective on market movements rather than focusing on a single stock. With CWG Markets, you can trade indices through online CFDs and futures, available on all our platforms.
