LEVERAGED TRADING
Leverage, also known as gearing or lodging, gives you the ability to control a large market position by use of smaller amounts of capital. This also allows you to trade multiple positions because it leaves you with more available capital. ETORO offers its customers leverage on all its financial instruments. WITH their spot forex offering, as ETORO customer, you can gear your trade up to 400:1.

24-HOUR TRADING
The spot forex market, in a sense, follows the sun around the world, and rarely experiences periods of illiquidity (low volume or widened spreads). As a spot forex trader, you can take advantage of the continual volume no matter where you are, no matter what time zone you are in. No longer do you have to wait for the bourse or exchange to open, but trade day or night well after the floor traders have ended their day.
Spot foreign exchange is one of the few true 24-hour markets. When trading spot forex, you get constant liquidity 24 hours a day, 5.5 days a week.
