eToro just gave UK traders a serious upgrade, making it easier to trade CFDs with GBP.

This follows a wave of 2025 upgrades, including a Stocktwits partnership for boosted social trading and the launch of crypto staking.

Key Takeaways

  • Trade USD-based CFDs directly using funds from your GBP account.
  • Close CFD positions straight into GBP, regardless of the original currency.
  • Use “Close All” to exit all positions in a single asset, with proceeds returning to your GBP balance.
  • Existing GBP benefits still apply with no conversion fees on GBP-based assets or conversion fees for deposits and withdrawals.
  • Note that eToro fees may still apply.
