Frequently asked questions

Can I trade Tesla shares from Malaysia with Weltrade?
Yes — Weltrade offers Tesla (TSLA) as a share CFD you can trade long or short on MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5.
Do I own the Tesla stock?
No — a CFD tracks the share price so you can profit from price moves without owning the underlying stock.
Do I actually own Tesla stock when I trade the CFD?
No. A CFD is a contract based on Tesla's price movement, so you never take ownership of the share. That means no share certificate, no shareholder voting rights and no ownership of dividends — your result depends on how the price moves between opening and closing your position, and you can lose money.
Can I short Tesla, or only buy?
You can do both. Unlike owning the stock — where you only benefit if the price rises — a CFD lets you go long (Buy) if you expect Tesla to climb or short (Sell) if you expect it to fall. Either way, leverage magnifies both potential profit and potential loss, so manage your position size and use risk controls.
How much leverage can I use on Tesla, and what's the catch?
Leverage is available up to 1:1000 at Weltrade. Higher leverage lets you open a larger position with less capital, but it magnifies losses just as much as gains — a small move against you can wipe out a big share of your margin. Use stop-loss orders and only risk what you can afford to lose.
Which account and platform should I choose for Tesla?
For stock CFDs like Tesla you'll want a Premium or Pro account (from $25), because both give you a choice of MetaTrader 4 or MetaTrader 5. Pro has the tightest spreads (from 0.5). The Cent account (from $1) runs on MT4 only. MT5 adds more timeframes, Depth of Market and a built-in economic calendar, which some traders prefer for stock news.
Why does Tesla's price move so much, and when is it most active?
Tesla is a high-volatility instrument: delivery and production numbers, margins, and company or sector news can move the price sharply. Spreads can widen around earnings releases. Because Tesla lists on a US exchange, its CFD price is generally most active during US market hours — plan entries and exits accordingly and be cautious around scheduled events.
