In the world of shares trading, individuals engage in the buying and selling of shares in specific assets or companies. Traders acquire shares, hold ownership, and make decisions on when to sell them based on the market value of the shares. At 8Invest, shares are exclusively traded through CFDs, allowing participation in price fluctuations without owning physical shares. In shares CFD trading, you can profit from upward movements with a long position or from downward movements with a short position.
