I have been looking into various ways to play the stock market to make big money out of it. I have been looking into two investment vehicles primarily, and they are CFDs (contracts for differences) and options trading. Now, I think personally that trading just options, i.e. puts & calls is wasting assets as most of them expire worthless and it is a common fact that people who trade this way have a 95%+ failure ratio. Thats why I wouldn’t trade this way to make a fortune as my chances are quite slim. I have however, traded CFDs on a practice account and I made 25% return on my first trade. I still think, though, that again this might be wasting assets doing it this way like writing options. The best way to make the big money in the stock market I believe, how the pros do it is by short selling and long selling stocks.

What I’d like to know in your opinion is what investment vehicle out of CFDs or options would I be best to use that is recommended to use to short sell and long sell stocks to make massive money and become a millionaire out of? Which investment vehicle is safer to use for short selling and long selling out of using options or CFDs? Good, reasoanble answers would be much appreciated. Thanks.
