get a trading plan - back test it - fine tune it - hone your skills; then trade CFD's.
trade in small amounts to begin with. generally speaking tench gave very good advice.
a solid trading plan is imperitive if you want to make money out of cfd's. the core of your trading plan is money management. don't trade any more than one position at a time when you start.
go by the theory less is more meaning follow three-five stocks religiously with 5-10% margin. leave the 3% & 1 % out untill you can trade on 10% profitably.
the reason is this you get a feel when the market is turning against you rather than having mechanical stops...when you feel the market is turning against you sell. this only comes through 'screen time' as you are in tune with the stocks you follow.
