How Indices trading works
Indices trading allows you to trade on the performance of a group of stocks without needing to buy shares in each individual company. If you think the value of the index is likely to rise, you can simply buy the index. If you think the value of the index is likely to fall, you can sell it.

Indices are traded in lots
Indices trading involves leverage and margin
Indices trading example
You decide to buy 0.1 lots of the S&P500 at 4500 using 100:1 leverage.
10 indices contracts x 4500 = USD 45,000
USD 45,000
USD 45,000 / 100 = USD 450
Now you have opened a long position in the S&P500 worth USD 45,000. Since indices are traded using leverage, only $450 was used as margin from your trading account. After some time, the price of the S&P500 moves and you decide to sell.
Scenario 1
The S&P500 moves up from 4500 to 4600 and you decide to sell.
This is how the profit or loss on the trade would be calculated.
P/L = (Current price - Initial price) x Position value / Current price
P/L = ((4600 - 4500) x 45,000) / 4,600
(100 x 45,000) / 4,600
P/L = 978.26
Scenario 2
The S&P500 moves down from 4500 to 4400 and you decide to sell.
This is how the profit or loss on the trade would be calculated.
P/L = ((Current price - Initial price) x Position value) / Current price
P/L = ((4400 - 4500) x 45,000) / 4,400
P/L = (-100 x 45,000) / 4,600
P/L = -978.26
