spreadbetting: pros cons and tips:     

zarif - 19 Sep 2003 17:29

can we start the ball rolling on sb firms and cfd firms giving them marks out of 10. spreads etc. also min size openings etc.
this was not my idea the suggestion was from jules and i think we should give it a try.

Since my deal4free whinge has guest-starred on this thread:

10 days have passed since Deal4Free's systems crashed. The position data has never reappeared for me on-line, even though dealers could see it on their system. The stop on the position got hit yesterday but I only found out today when I called the dealers. I have not received the promised email explaining the transaction. Throughout support people and dealers at D4F have been evasive, inaccurate or plain rude.

In contrast I have used IG Index's on-line system for months with no problems.

I was wondering if i could resurrect this thread and ask any regular spread betters who they use? Im considering IG but have read about betting 1p so you cant loose much to start with. Can anyone direct me towards the best account out the now? Im not a novice nor an expert!

critch16 thats hard to answer it all depends on what markets you want to bet on i have an account with ig and spreadex. both have there + & - points .why not try 2 to see which suits you best.

CRITCH16 - 03 Aug 2006 11:36 - 66 of 69

Thanks for your response Woodie, i was mainly looking to trade Equities, spreadbetting on sports apart from Golf with my luck would be a silly move. Could you please elabourate on the + and - points please?

Thanks in advance

critch, finspreads are doing the 1p thing as part of their trading academy.

CRITCH16 - 03 Aug 2006 14:48 - 68 of 69

Thanks for that. I'll look into it cheers for now.

WOODIE - 03 Aug 2006 15:11 - 69 of 69

critch with ig you can trade 24 hours on the major indexs with spreadex they are only open 7am to 9-15pm. spreadex has special offers on ie spred free trades now and again there are other + & - but you will only know what suits you best once you have started trading hope that helps
