How Our Products Work

Although the terminology between Spread Betting CFDs and Forex varies slightly and some of the benefits are different, they are all based on the same simple concept.

If you think the price of a financial instrument is going to go up, you buy and unlike traditional share trading, if you think the price is going to go down you can sell.

Spread Betting, CFDs and Forex share similar characteristics, each has a spread, incur financing costs and is traded on margin.
