How to: trade China

China - it’s the second largest economy in the world and has been the global economic powerhouse for decades. Accounting for nearly 18% of world total GDP, China has been playing an increasingly critical role in the world economy, especially in the post-pandemic period.

When it comes to the capital markets, China offers excellent alternative opportunities for traders to consider. Given the unlimited potential and the relatively low correlation between China assets and other major markets, exposure to China enables traders to diversify their portfolio and express a view on fluctuation in its economic trends and financial markets evolution.

cryptoburst’s Edge

While global investors can freely trade Chinese stocks and equity indices that are listed on overseas exchanges, trading mainland China’s A-shares, the RMB-denominated stocks in Shanghai and Shengzhen exchange are highly restricted for non-Chinese citizens at the moment. Cryptoburstoffers a unique edge in this space.

  1. Ease of access: With cryptoburst, however, we make it easier for you. Through our wide-range of China-related instruments, you are just a click away from adding China exposures into your portfolio.
  2. Autonomy of choice: Do you have a different view on China? No problem! You can express it by going long or short on China assets, and depending on your account type, with the leverage that best suits your strategy.

Available instruments to trade

You can trade a view on Chinese markets with instruments, including indices, ETF, individual shares and the Chinese Yuan. Or you can opt to trade products that have high correlation with Chinese markets such as the Aussie Dollar.
