How does spread betting work ?
Spread betting allows you to speculate tax free on thousands of global instruments including forex, indices, shares, commodities and bonds..
​
With spread betting you decide which direction a market will move. Then you place a bet based on the amount you want to make or lose per point movement. If the market moves in your chosen direction you will make a profit and if it moves in the opposite direction you will make a loss.
​
The profit is calculated by multiplying the amount of points moved by the amount that you bet per point movement.
How do CFDs work ?

If your chosen market moves in your favor you will make a profit. If it moves in the opposite direction you will make a loss
