Trading Academy Course

Learn to trade with the Finspreads Trading Academy

The Trading Academy Course is our comprehensive education programme for new customers, offering small bet sizes and a wealth of educational material to help you get started.

For eight weeks from the day you deposit a minimum of £100, you can trade with stake sizes from 10 pence per point, with unlimited access to all the features of our trading platform.

Membership of the Academy means you will also receive a Trading Academy Course manual by post, and you can also download a PDF version by logging into your account. The handbook covers information on the markets we offer, trading styles, and managing risk.

To join the Trading Academy, simply open a Finspreads account and deposit a minimum of £100.

 

Learn to trade live, from just 10p per point

Please note that the Trading Academy Course and the ability to trade with stake sizes of 10 pence per point will end eight weeks from your initial deposit date.  This means that after eight weeks from the start of the Trading Academy Course period your minimum stake size will rise from 10 pence per point to 50 pence per point. You will still be able to close any open positions if they were opened at less than 50 pence, and amend any orders attached to them. Any new positions that you open after the eight week period will be subject to our standard minimum sizes.

Full details on stake sizes can be found on the information tabs on each instrument within your trading account. Please also see our Spread Betting Market Information Sheets
