Introduction to Spread Betting
This 30-minute seminar covers the basics of how spread betting works, the various markets available to you and how spread betting compares to other forms of trading.
During the seminar, attendees will have the opportunity to ask questions and participate in live trading and decide on whether it makes more sense to buy or sell various markets based on real examples. Applying the principles of spread betting to real markets helps explain how it all works in practice, not just theory.
The second half of the seminar focuses on our PureDeal trading platform. Topics include placing trades, managing risks using stop orders and managing and opening up new positions even when you are away from your trading screen. By the end of the seminar, you should be comfortable with how spread betting works and with placing trades on our PureDeal trading platform.
