Frequently asked questions
The term “indices” is the plural form of “index.” In finance, an index refers to a statistical measure or indicator representing the performance of a specific sector or segment of the stock market. Indices are called so because they indicate or measure the collective price movements of a group of stocks.
Examples of well-known stock indices include the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), Standard & Poor’s 500 (S&P 500), and Nasdaq Composite in the United States. Internationally, there are indices like the FTSE 100 in the United Kingdom, the DAX in Germany, and the Nikkei 225 in Japan.
The three biggest indices, in terms of widespread recognition and use as economic indicators, are the S&P 500, which reflects the performance of 500 large companies listed on US stock exchanges; the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA), representing 30 large publicly-owned companies; and the Nasdaq Composite, known for including a large number of technology stocks.
Trading stock index derivatives, like futures and options, offers benefits like leverage, which allows for greater exposure with less capital. They also provide flexibility in executing various strategies, including hedging. Derivatives can be traded on margin and offer the ability to profit from both rising and falling markets, unlike direct investing in indices.
The best time to trade indices generally aligns with the trading hours of the underlying stocks. For major indices like the S&P 500 or DJIA, peak trading times are during the regular trading hours of the US stock market, particularly the first and last hours of the trading day when volume and volatility are higher.
On an index chart, popular technical indicators include moving averages for trend identification, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) for assessing overbought or oversold conditions, Bollinger Bands for volatility analysis, and the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) for identifying potential buy and sell signals.
