For the more experienced trader, our brand new education zone features a fully customisable training schedule that is bespoke to the needs of each individual.

In addition, our education team provides webinars, seminars and online learning modules, catering for a range of trading experience as part of our ongoing education program for potential and existing customers. Whether you are a beginner or you are already spread betting, our targeted education program will help you be a better trader.

No commission fees

Unlike traditional share dealing and trading with other brokers, CMC Markets does not charge any commission or account management fees regardless of trade size or frequency, making spread betting with us an extremely cost efficient way to trade.

Competitive margin rates

Margin trading is an efficient use of your money because you only need to allocate a small proportion of the value of your position to secure a trade. With a stockbroker you would have to provide the whole cost of a transaction in one go. CMC Markets’ margin rates are amongst the most competitive in the industry and vary between 1% and 15%.
