One of the most popular Forex brokers, RoboForex has announced addition of CFD trading for Ethereum and Bitcoin. CFD stands for contracts-for-difference and allows to buy or sell both ETH/USD and BTC/USD. Newly added instruments are now available for trading through either MT4 or MT5 trading terminals.
Obviously this decision has been made because of the growing popularity and trading volume of the cryptocurrencies, especially the most popular ones such as Ether and Bitcoin. There is no a noticeable tendency for the foreign exchange brokers to add cryptocurrencies to the list of their trading instruments.
This once again this emphasizes the demand and interest in trading crypto currencies and very likely more and more brokers will be adding them to their list of trading instruments. Besides, it would not be surprising to see top 5-10 cryptocurrencies available for trading through most Forex Brokers in the near future.
