*Spread bets carry a high level of risk so you should only speculate with money you can afford to lose. Stops are automatically allocated to each trade and if triggered are subject to market gaps unless you specified for your trade to be guaranteed. You can lose more than your initial deposit and stake. Before you open an account, please ensure that spread betting matches your investment objectives, familiarise yourself with the risks involved and if necessary seek independent advice. The terms bet and trade are synonymous. You will be in fact placing bets and consequently you are not entitled to the rights to the underlying instruments you would be if you were trading.
