Trading Product Summary
Trading and investing can be done in various markets, giving investors access to a wide range of assets. In addition to the most well-known assets such as stocks and stock indices, traders worldwide are active in the foreign exchange market (Forex), commodities, and crypto-currencies. On this page, you will find a crystal clear overview of each market available at Traze and examples of the assets available on the trading platform.
Forex and currency pairs
Forex is the world’s largest financial market in terms of trading volume, with as much as $5 trillion traded daily. It is the market for currencies such as the Euro, the Dollar, and the Yen. One of the most popular forex trading features is the ability to trade 24 hours a day, 5 days a week.
Finally, Forex is also a popular market among day-traders because of the high leverage allowed, allowing significant gains to be made quickly on small changes in the currency market.
Stock market and shares
Stocks are undoubtedly the most widely held assets by individual investors and independent traders. A stock represents a fraction of a company’s capital. If you own shares, you own part of the company. Shares and stocks allow you to cash in on gains if the value of the company, and therefore its shares, rises. Or, conversely, to suffer losses if the company performs poorly and its stock suffers. Some stocks also provide regular income independent of the stock price, with dividends, the share of distributed profits that goes to each shareholder.
Some stocks are riskier than others. For example, technology stocks are generally considered riskier than utility stocks. But they also offer much more attractive earnings potential. Thus, it is possible to find suitable shares regardless of your risk profile, and all investors can put together portfolios that exactly match their expectations and financial goals. It is also possible to diversify your investments by choosing stocks with different profiles that will not be influenced in the same way by events and thus reduce your risk.
To choose which stocks to buy, traders and investors rely on various parameters, such as quarterly company results, company news, and the general economic climate. But it is also possible to look at other parameters, such as valuation ratios or analysts’ forecasts, which provide official 12-month targets for all stocks in the world market. With Traze, you can trade AMZN, BABA, AAPL, and TSLA shares, amongst a wide array of other choices.

Stock market Indexes
The performance of an index, which is tracked daily, indicates the average performance of the stocks included in the basket, based on a weighted average in which the most capitalized or most quoted securities also have more weight.
Therefore, investing in Indices is a way to invest in the stock market in a very diversified way in a single trade without the need to research several stocks. Historical data also shows that investing in stock indices over 10 years is almost always profitable. For short-term traders, stock indices offer enough daily volatility to take advantage of exciting trading opportunities each day while reducing the risk of a sudden sharp drop in the face of an unexpected event, thanks to diversification.
NAS100, S&P500, HK50 and 14 other indices are up for trading for everyone through Traze.
