Regardless of your level of experience, from a beginner seeking basic stock market information, to an experienced trader seeking to perfect your trading strategies, or even if you’re somewhere in between, our FAQs question and answer investing guide can help.

Spread betting is one of those geared products similar to futures trading, options and contracts for difference that allow you the dream of huge financial success without having a vast capital to begin with. Unfortunately the reality is a little different and while you can win big you can lose in glorious style too. For those who have not looked at spread betting it is a flexible financial tool allowing you to profit from the stock markets going up or down.

Because the market is very volatile at the moment – the FTSE can swing between 150 and 200 points in a day – it’s an opportunity for an awful lot of spread bettors to make money on the market going up, or also the market going down, just in that daily range as well. However, spread betting can be a dangerous tool if not handled calmly and you have to have a bit of cash behind you – it would be folly otherwise.

Go to the re-launched http://www.Financial-Spread-Betting.com website now to check out our latest offerings:

The http://www.Financial-Spread-Betting.com site is a one-stop online destination for anyone who wants to know more about spread betting and its workings. We work to dispel the myths regarding spread betting and to provide individual traders with a clearer understanding of how spread betting works and how it can be an efficient, tax-free alternative to trading with a traditional broker.    

About Spread Betting and CFDs: Spread bets are ‘bets’ on share price movements. They exploit a tax loophole and come under betting legislation, so gains are free of tax, but any losses incurred cannot be offset against capital gains. So if a share price is 300p, a bet of £1 per ‘point’ would be the equivalent of making a £300 investment, £10 per point £3,000, £100 per point £30,000 etc…Prices are quoted with a ‘spread’ – for instance, if the share price is 300p, you might be quoted 298-302 (298 to buy, 302 to sell – in fact this is the same as CFDs and traditional shares trading). Like contracts for difference, with spread bets you can sell ‘short’ as easily as you can buy. Bets by law have to be time-limited so they are either ‘daily’, or based around a 3 month maturity calendar (but can be ‘rolled over’ and you can even do this automatically). Also, just like CFDs, there is an interest an interest charge and dividend credit for the period a position is held, but the spread betting company builds it into the price they quote for 3 and 6 month bets.

Financial-Spread-Betting.com is the brainchild of Andy Richardson, a London-based spreadbetter who, fed up with the rat race, wanted to enable himself to earn a great income working from home. Having started with just £10,000 about 10 years ago down in London he started working for a small investment company with the boss giving him £50k of company money to play with which he turned into £200k within a year.

FinancialSpreads.com Launches 24 Hour Trading Ahead of the UK Election

FinancialSpreads.com Launches 24 Hour Trading Ahead of the UK Election












Financial Spreads


(PRWEB) May 5, 2010

Financial Spreads, the London based spread betting firm, is now letting investors trade 24 hours a day. As the UK election unfolds users will be able to trade key financial markets such as the FTSE 100 and Sterling/Dollar exchange rate throughout the night.

Election nights typically run into the small hours and investors will now be able to take advantage of overnight price movements.

“The Financial Spreads dealing desk is now open 24 hours a day, Sunday to Friday. Whilst we offer more than 2000 markets we are also trading over 50 of the most popular markets throughout the night. As the swing seats are settled retail investors will be able to trade in and out of their positions,” said Adam Jepsen, spokesman for Financial Spreads.

The financial markets have just experienced a highly volatile week with 2 year Greek debt downgraded to Junk status and the FTSE 100 and Dow seeing some large swings. The outcome of the UK election should also keep traders on their toes.

“As the Liberal Democrats have become more popular during the election campaign we have seen Sterling weaken. The markets would prefer a Conservative win.

“When the election results come in, clients will be able to speculate on a range of markets to go up or down. If the result points towards a hung parliament then clients might take a defensive position and sell the FTSE 100. If it looks like the Conservative Party will win an outright majority then clients have the opportunity the buy the Sterling/Dollar market,” concluded Jepsen.

About Financial Spreads

Based in London, Financial Spreads is a trading name of London Capital Group which is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority.

Investors can spread bet on shares, stock market indices, commodities, foreign exchange rates, bonds and interest rates both online and over the phone. The commission free spread betting service lets clients speculate on markets to go up or down and includes access to a range of charts and research data.

Spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital. You may lose more than your initial investment. It may not be suitable for all investors. Only speculate with money that you can afford to lose. Please ensure you fully understand the risks involved and seek independent financial advice where necessary.

SpreadBets Launches New and Improved Financial Spread Betting Website

gI 0 spreadbets SpreadBets Launches New and Improved Financial Spread Betting Website

Spread Bets


(PRWEB) July 28, 2010

SpreadBets.org.uk, the financial spread betting website, has been through a major overhaul in order to provide an improved quality of service and a more user friendly experience for their spread betting users.

Besides the notable navigation and layout improvements, SpreadBets has now added FinancialSpreads to its listings and compares an even wider range of spread betting companies. The site has also introduced a series of articles from some of the industry’s leading analysts.

The revamped style is aimed at making it even easier for visitors to find commentary on the financial markets that they are interested in. New sections cover up-to-date market data and market analysis as well as a spread betting tips section featuring the latest broker’s upgrades and downgrades.

According to John Ford, spokesman for SpreadBets said, “We are hoping that users will find it easier to research spread betting as an investment option whilst more experienced traders will be able to make use of the daily content to aid their trading decisions”.

The increased competition within the spread betting market has also led to the site’s comparison tables being redesigned to highlight the difference in the range of markets and account services offered by the various spread betting firms.

Regular users of the site should not be concerned however. Much of the content that visitors have found useful in the past is still available including a range of spread betting offers, trading guides and detailed trading examples.

About SpreadBets:

www.SpreadBets.org.uk is the financial spread betting website which provides daily spread betting news, reviews, comparisons and company offers as well as a range of articles and reports designed to aid both the less experienced investor and the more experienced trader.

Spread betting involves speculating on the value of a given market. This means that traders can speculate on markets to go down as well as up which can provide greater trading flexibility than traditional share trading. Some spread betting companies even offer 24 hour trading, 5 days a week on a wide range of major international markets.

However, financial spread betting carries a high level of risk. You can lose more than your initial investment or stake. Financial spread betting may not be suitable for all investors. Only trade with money that you can afford to lose. Make sure you fully understand the risk involved. If necessary, seek independent financial advice.
