CMC Markets Introduces New Share Basket CFDs

CMC Markets has released an innovative new product that picks stocks using the Relative Rotation Graphs algorithm. The signature share baskets allow traders to follow a particular trading strategy while diversifying their existing portfolio.

How It Works

CMC Markets announced the initial selection of share baskets will use Relative Rotation Graphs. The algorithm homes in on shares with positive momentum when compared to their benchmark indices. Stocks will be selected from benchmark equity indices in the US, UK, Australia, Hong Kong and Germany. The sophisticated algorithm will also backtest the performance of selected stocks.

CMC Markets has made it easy to find a basket that suits your trading style. You can select from a list of categories, view component stocks, and track recent performance in a few clicks.
