There is a table of dividends below, it contains information about the next date of dividends charge on every trading instrument of the NYSE group. Dividend pointed out in the appropriate column will be charged for each position on #CFD instrument which is not closed before the pay date.

Example: in case at the ex-date of dividend in the amount of A of share #B there will be "Bought" position in 2 lots the sum of dividend, which will be charged from a deal with shares #B, constitutes 2lots X 100 shares X A USD. If there are several opened positions of share #B the sum of all positions is taken as A value.

When the balance of deals is negative (the sum of deals has SELL-slant) the dividend has a negative value.
