Dukascopy Launches Dedicated Stock Trading Platform with 25,000+ CFDs

Swiss-regulated Dukascopy Bank has launched a dedicated Stock Trading Platform, offering clients more than 25,000 contracts for difference (CFDs) on stocks and ETFs across 20 global markets. The new interface is accessible through JForex4 Desktop and is designed to work alongside the bank’s existing JForex environment rather than replace it.

The rollout significantly expands Dukascopy’s equity CFD coverage. JForex currently lists more than 1,500 stocks and ETFs across 18 markets. The new platform gives access to over 25,000 instruments across 20 markets, with plans to extend coverage to 87 markets in the future.

Trading conditions on the new platform differ from JForex in several respects. Positions are long-only and run without leverage (1:1), while JForex supports both long and short positions with leverage up to 1:10. Automated trading strategies, which are available on JForex, are not supported on the Stock Trading Platform. In addition, stocks and ETFs already listed on JForex will not appear on the new platform to avoid duplication.

Funding for the Stock Trading Platform is handled through a dedicated JForex sub-account. All existing JForex funding methods remain available, including wire transfer, payment cards, Skrill, Neteller, and cryptocurrency. Clients can open a Stock CFD sub-account via the Client Cabinet, transfer funds from their JForex account, and begin trading through the Services section in JForex4 Desktop.

The launch positions Dukascopy among brokers expanding retail access to global equity CFDs, as competition in multi-asset offerings continues to intensify. The move reflects a broader trend among online brokers to widen retail access to international equity markets.
