Did you miss these Pairs CFD moves? - Election Edition

Sharp shifts in some of 26 Degrees' Pairs CFDs reveal the market's response to Trump-era policy expectations, with impactful sector moves and geopolitical dynamics driving decisive changes.

What are Pairs CFDs?

Launched earlier in the year, Pairs CFDs by 26 Degrees are a completely new trading product built in-house for broker dealers, providing traders with the ability to trade any two instruments against each other as a single instrument, just like an FX pair.

Whether that be Metal vs Index, Commodity vs Commodity, Equity vs Equity, Pairs CFDs allow traders to go long in one instrument and short in another, creating a single leveraged position that is treated as a single trade. Importantly, this allows traders to easily set stop loss and take profit levels which are far more complex to set if managing two separate trades. Integration is also simplified due to the ability for Pairs CFDs to be streamed alongside all other 26 Degrees asset classes, via a unified API.

US 100 vs XAU (NAC/XAU)

Pro-business policies anticipated from the incoming Trump administration also strengthened USD and US indices, encouraging a risk-on sentiment. This weighed on XAU prices and drove NAC/XAU to a 5.90% day-on-day gain on November 6.
