The benefits of spread betting

Financial spread betting is a cost effective way to trade on thousands of forex markets. At RPD FX, we combine the excitement of spread betting with the world-renowned MetaTrader 4 platform.

Spread betting with RPD FX allows you to take a position on whether you think a forex or commodity market will rise or fall, without having to buy the underlying asset.

With RPD FX, spread betting acts a leveraged product. This means you can open get much more exposure to the market for your deposit than if you were to enter the market outright. While this one of the many benefits to spread betting, it does also mean that you can lose more than the funds on deposit.

Forex spread betting with a Metatrader 4 broker allows you to take advantage of MT4 and its unique features, such as applying thousands of charting indicators and setting up automated trading via Expert Advisors. It is important to know your risks when spread betting due to your investment’s exposure, so ensure that you have a suitable risk management plan in place.

As you are betting on the financial markets and not trading them directly, any profits that you do make are currently exempt from capital gains and income tax for UK residents. Please note: tax law may change or differ depending on your personal circumstances or if you do not pay tax in the UK.
