Yes absolutely,

For a day trader or swing trader like myself i dont consider interest as detrimental at all. In fact i actually quite like the fact of getting paid the interst when i go short.

I think it becomes a problem for an investor who might use $500 to buy $10,000 worth of CFD's (shares) and holds the CFDs (shares) for a year. thus paying $550 interest. But with the leverage cfd gives this might be a small price to pay.
