Spread Betting: Summary
The topics covered so far are crucial for anyone wanting to spread bet. The second part of our guide covers key markets in a lot more depth, and can help build a better understanding of the key concepts introduced above.
Some of these aspects, particularly in-play betting are quite complex and we recommend spread betting only once confident and familiar with each market. We also recommend starting with small stakes and building up gradually. Our partner spread betting site SpreadEx has comprehensive online guides, calculators and spread betting blog and diary pieces to help further familiarise with their markets.
