The Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), one of the world’s highest-volume stock indices, executed its first trade in 1986.
It includes 30 of the largest U.S. companies, such as Citigroup, IBM, McDonald’s, Microsoft, and JP Morgan. Through your QNB Invest international trading account, you can invest in the share of these leading U.S. companies. The index is influenced by monetary policies and statements from the U.S. Federal Reserve (FED) as well as other major central banks such as the European Central Bank (ECB) and the Bank of Japan (BOJ).
Additionally, the volatility of the index often increases based on the financial results of the companies it represents
CFD Products and Leveraged Transactions on U.S. Stock Indices
In global markets, U.S. indices such as the S&P 500 and the Dow Jones are among the most heavily traded instruments.
Similarly, the German DAX Index (GER30) is one of the most liquid European indices.
QNB Invest provides investors the opportunity to trade not only major currency pairs such as EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/TRY, EUR/TRY, but also Dow Jones, S&P 500, and DAX (GER30) indices as CFD products, all with leverage ratios up to 1:10.
Advantages of Trading the Dow Jones Index on the Forex Market
As one of Turkey’s leading forex institutions, QNB Invest offers investors the ability to trade the Dow Jones Index with leverage up to 1:10.
Using the MetaTrader 5 platform, investors can track real-time Dow Jones Index prices and observe global market trends, while taking advantage of leveraged trading opportunities.
Example:
Suppose the Dow Jones Index is trading at 17,000.
A QNB Invest client places a buy order of 1 lot on the MetaTrader 5 platform.
The total position size would be 17,000 × 10 = 170,000 USD.
With 1:10 leverage, the required margin for this position would be 17,000 USD.
If the index rises from 17,000 to 17,100, the investor would gain:
(17,100 - 17,000) × 10 = 1,000 USD profit.
Another advantage of trading the Dow Jones Index as a CFD is the ability to profit in both directions — not only from price increases but also by taking short positions when expecting a decline.
