Although not as popular as many other assets, some high leverage forex brokers still offer CFDs that track the price of certain government bonds, most often from Germany, the US, and the UK. Since bonds are known to be stable and slow-moving assets, highly leveraged CFDs are an ideal way to trade them for day traders, scalpers, and other traders who have a very short time frame.
With CFDs, it is also possible to short bonds, which can otherwise be a complicated thing to do. This opens up interesting opportunities to ride long-term trends in the bond market, while also offering diversification away from the stock and forex market for traders who are already invested there.
