Hi Max, I reside in Europe and have been trading CFDs for more
than a decade now. As a rule I think it can be said that CFDs are
simply not the correct instrument with which to trade individual
stocks. You can of course research the commissions charged by the
myriad of CFD providers you'll find online, but in my experience
all of them charge rather high commissions for stocks. My advice
would be to use CFDs for forex, commodities and indices, and to
place your stock trades with a regular online broker (even though
you will not get the leverage there). As an aside note, since the
European Nanny State has now decided that we may no longer trade
with such high leverage, I have switched my trading account to an
Australian outfit.
