FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Stock indices are influenced by broad macroeconomic events (such as central bank interest rate decisions, inflation reports, and GDP releases), corporate earnings announcements from heavyweight constituents (e.g., Apple, Microsoft in the S&P 500), geopolitical developments, and shifts in currency valuations.


If you hold an open Cash Index CFD position past the ex-dividend date of a constituent company, a cash adjustment is applied. Long positions receive a dividend credit, while short positions incur a dividend debit to reflect the post-dividend share price reduction.


Yes. DB Investing provides extended trading sessions on major benchmark indices (such as US500, US30, and GER40), allowing you to react immediately to off-market corporate earnings announcements and international headlines.


You can start trading with micro-contracts (0.01 lots) with low initial deposits, so you can size positions precisely without committing large amounts of capital. Remember that leverage magnifies both gains and losses.
