What OANDA's Australian crypto CFD offering covers
OANDA's Australian cryptocurrency CFD page names its CFD offering plainly: Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ether and Litecoin. That is a compact, established-coin range rather than a broad altcoin menu, which suits traders whose interest is confined to major names. The page confirms the essential CFD character: you get price exposure without ownership of the underlying cryptocurrency. Platform choice is a practical strength for this provider, with the page listing OANDA web and mobile, TradingView, and MT4/MT5, though if you already use a preferred interface you should confirm it is available for the specific crypto contract and account you intend to use. Market access is listed as 24/5, which means the product does not follow crypto's continuous weekend market.
