Financial spread betting is a leveraged tool that gives investors the opportunity to trade the financial markets without ever taking physical ownership of the underlying instrument. This means that the trader/investor can speculate in the direction of any financial instrument, whether it is specific shares, currencies, commodities or indices without ever owning them. In the financial markets there are standard contract sizes. For example for the FTSE 100 index contract the standard market size is £10. With financial spread betting the investor nominates his own stake size, for example £2 per point. The bet is settled as the difference between the purchase and the sell price.Financial Spreads is appealing to ever greater numbers of investors for several reasons, not least of which is the absence of capital gains tax on profits (unlike conventional share trading, where CGT applies to trading gains in many countries), and the lack of stamp duty on transactions (most interesting in the UK; strictly speaking, the transaction is a bet, rather than an investment – hence the name.) However, by its very nature financial spread betting is more risky than traditional, fixed odds betting, or conventional traditional share trading, where participants are usually a little more protected. If you judge wrong, you are likely to lose a great deal in the absence of a stop loss and any losses made on a spread bet cannot be offset against capital gains on ordinary investments.The costs associated with financial spread betting are included in the spread (the difference between the bid and the offer price). Therefore the wider the spread, the more you pay to trade. So when considering a company to spread bet always compare the spread. The good news about the spreads is that these are generally getting tighter due to increased competition and explosive growth as investors are beginning to realise the advantages of financial spread betting; thus making the system more efficient.Many people think that financial sprad betting is too risky. Subconsciously, they feel that investing in shares is ethically acceptable whereas betting has down market connotations and morally reprehensible. That is a pity, because the truth is quite different. You buy a share because you believe that the price will rise and you will make a profit. You bet on a share price for exactly the same reason. The only practical difference between buying a share, and betting on the movement of the share price is that you need much more ready cash to buy the share. The costs of buying a share are much greater than placing a bet.Open a GFT AccountIf the underlying share price moved disastrously against you overnight, for example, you might los

The most successful traders out there have a number of accounts.The first reason for this is the ability to get the best quote. Financial Spread Betting is hard. Anything you can use to your advantage is great, even a half a point on the spread will make a difference.By having more than one Financial Spread Betting account you will be able to read multiple quotes at the same time (with a little practice!). You will then be able to trade of the better one.It will take time for you to reach this level but if you can trade this way then you will be ahead of a lot of traders.The second reason is contingency. These days spread betting trading platforms are a lot more stable. They don’t hang as much and they are very rarely down. The spread betting companies put a lot of time and money into making sure that this doesn’t happen.But…What if it does? What if the financial markets are going crazy and you want to trade?
