Spread Betting summary
Spread betting could not be easier, and is one of the easiest ways to trade. Spread betting is a tax free cost effective alternative to traditional trading. It allows you to speculate on the movement of forex, indicies, stocks and shares without using a stockbroker or currency trading house, therefore you do not have to pay commission or fees. One can basically bet per point on whether a price will rise or fall. Betting on the movement of forex, indicies, stocks and shares allows one to take advantage of trading on margin, which offers the opportunity to generate substantial profits on both rising and falling markets. Howeveer, one must note of the high risks in trading this way, too. Spread betting does offer all the advantages of speculating on the forex market, stock markets and much more.
If you haven't yet signed up to a spreadbetting platform then FXLRmarkets.com offers one of the most instant online spread betting facilities currently available. They also offer a £10,000 demo account, so one can practice before trading with their own money. The perfect complement to any charting package.

FXLR has negotiated a REBATE for all its customers on trade spreads. Just mention FXLR on your application form and you will receive CASH BACK. This is no gimmick - you get a rebate on your trades. Even if you decide to trade alone, away from FXLR, you will still keep that rebate.
And now Dukascopy (Suisse) SA has announced the new minimal deposit conditions for retail clients. From now on trading is available starting from 1,000 USD, with trades possible as little as 10p per pip. The policy was changed following rapidly growing demand in this segment. Dukascopy offers the tightest spreads too. For example, GBP-JPY is just 1.5 pip spread. Sometimes Euro-USD & USD-JPY even has a zero spread! Compare that to your current platform!
