What is Spread Betting?
Spread betting is the act of speculating on the future price movement of a financial market.
For example, you could spread bet on a share such as Marks and Spencer, a stock index such as the FTSE 100 or a forex pair such as GBP/USD.
As a Finspreads account holder, you can take a position on over 12,000 financial markets including shares, indices, forex, commodities, metals and many more.
