I'm very new to all this - I've read loads of definitions of CFD's and Options contracts and cannot tell the difference.

Options/Futures: The option/obligation to buy/sell an asset at a future date for an agreed price. You don't own any shares yet, so no ownership issues.

CFD: The same but you only get paid/pay the difference in share price change x shares borrowed. (But I've read you can do this with Option/Futures Contracts?!)
