Best company for Spread Betting?

pault123

Can anyone reccomend a good company they use for Spread betting?

I currently use Hoodless and Brennan for my shares who are fantastic but they don't appear to offer Spread betting.

Many thanks

I use IG Index and CapitalSpreads no probs with either - stable web portals and IG offer a guaranteed stop loss level on their 'Newbie' account.
Fast free transfer of funds out and in.
ALL spreadbet companies are financial bookies and as such will offer a 'price' that 'reflects' the current market.

IT IS VERY VERY difficult to beat them regularly.

BE prepared to lose some or all of your money.

I have one company ive lost money in with shares, the leftovers I have i would like to invest on a loss spread bet and try and recoup a bit of it.

If I lose it all then i'm prepared for that

But i am 100% certain this company has a serious drop coming up!

Think ill give IG a try, just filling in the registration forms now. Thanks snax

Based on market performance this last week, that's not a bet ..... it's a cert !! (always provided, of course, the 'serious drop' is not already past?)

If you are insistent on spread betting, open more than one account, as you often get better prices from one than the other. Also, if you are looking at shares/indices, then CFDs are often a cheaper way to gain the exposure.

None of these are for the faint-hearted and/or inexperienced investor. Read the wealth warnings, your losses are potentially unlimited. Be careful out there.
