Spread Betting is a form of derivatives trading, which means you aren’t taking ownership of the underlying asset. You open a position based on whether you think the value of an instrument will rise or fall. If the asset price moves in your favour, you profit, if it goes against you, you incur a loss.
Spread Betting is available on Forex, Spot Indices, Spot Metals and Spot Energy and is only available to UK residents of FxPro UK LTD.
