Index

Indices are highly popular among traders. They first emerged in 1884, and have been in use ever since. 

What Is Index Trading?

Market Indices are a collection of stocks and instruments used to track the growth or trajectory of an industry or sector.
A stock index represents the top shares from a particular exchange. For example, the FTSE 100 represents the largest 100 companies traded on the London Stock Exchange. Other stock indices include Dow Jones and S&P (US), DAX and CAC (Europe), and Hang Seng and Nikkei (Asia-Pacific)
