INDEX · 2 ALGORITHMS

NASDAQ Composite (NASDAQ) trading algorithms.

The NASDAQ index is dominated by large technology names, which gives it a distinct volatility profile from currency pairs — sharp intraday momentum around the US market open, and outsized reactions to tech-sector earnings and rate expectations.

Algorithms trading it are commonly built around momentum or breakout logic tied to the New York session, since the index is comparatively quiet outside US trading hours.

It can, but because index CFDs can gap between sessions, strategies here typically manage overnight exposure more conservatively than a 24-hour forex pair would need to.
