About Euro 50 (Euro Stoxx 50)
The Euro Stoxx 50, also labelled Euro 50 or EU50, is an equity index representing large companies across the euro area. Its level is quoted in index points rather than as a share price. For the EU50 CFD, the supplied contract size is one times the index, expressed in euros per point.
Unlike a single-country benchmark, the Euro Stoxx 50 brings together companies from several euro-area economies. Its composition spans industries, giving it exposure to both domestic business conditions and international demand. The index reflects a shared currency region, but its constituent companies can have different sensitivities to interest rates, exchange rates and sector developments.
EU50 is traded as a CFD on Xellion's MT5 platform, allowing a position to be long or short without owning the underlying shares. Trading is available nearly around the clock from Monday to Friday, with a daily break, and is most active during European market hours. Leverage amplifies both gains and losses.

EU50 questions
Does the Euro Stoxx 50 cover all European stock markets?
No. The Euro Stoxx 50 focuses on large companies from the euro area rather than the whole of Europe. It therefore differs from broader European benchmarks that also include companies based in countries outside the shared currency region.
How is the EU50 contract size expressed?
The supplied EU50 contract size is one times the index, expressed in euros per point. This connects index-point movements to the contract's monetary value; the effect on a position also depends on the volume traded.
When can EU50 be traded on Xellion?
EU50 trading is available nearly around the clock, Monday to Friday, with a daily break. Activity is typically greatest during European market hours, when the underlying share markets are open and regional company announcements and economic releases attract attention.
Does trading EU50 mean owning Euro Stoxx 50 shares?
No. EU50 on Xellion's MT5 platform is a CFD, not ownership of the index's constituent shares. A position can be long or short, with gains or losses linked to price movements. Leverage increases exposure and amplifies both gains and losses.
