Go long or short
Profiting from falling markets is not reserved to institutional fund managers or hedge funds anymore. Individuals who have an account with WorldSpreads can now also benefit from the possibility to short financial instruments, therefore maximising profits in volatile markets.
No commissions
Our spreads are all-inclusive, no bad surprises, no extra costs.
No stamp duty
Spread betting is a trading technique whereby you get exposure to a financial instrument without physically owning it. This means that you do not even have to pay stamp duty on your transactions. This represents a substantial saving compared to dealing with a regular stockbroker.
No tax or CGT
The profits you make are free from UK capital gains and income tax. (Tax Laws are subject to change).
No currency risk
Once you have elected your reference currency - EUR, $, £ - you have the facility to process all your transactions in that reference currency, without running any currency risk. This is because, as opposed to standard share dealing, WorldSpreads quote prices per point move, not per EUR, $ or £ amount.
Instant execution**
You do not have to wait for your broker to get back to you before entering or closing any trade. Whenever you feel like betting, WorldSpreads offer instant execution by the telephone or via our fully interactive online dealing system, assuming appropriate liquidity in the markets.
Bet in small sizes
Worldspreads allows you to trade from as little as £1 (or currency equivalent) per point on all the markets - far smaller than you would be able to trade with a broker on the underlying markets.
Hedging facilities
If you know of a foreign currency payment to be made in the near future and are happy with the current exchange rate, WorldSpreads can help you hedge against any adverse currency movement. We quote the main currency cross rates and are happy to consider any specific request. This equally applies to hedging a portfolio of stocks for a limited period of time, or arbitraging between particular stocks
Extended dealing hours
Markets do not sleep. Therefore WorldSpreads has decided to offer extended trading hours on most instruments. You can call us between 7am and 9.15pm Monday to Friday London time. You can also check exact trading times for each instrument on our website.
**WorldSpreads retains the right to refer any trade to a dealer for manual price adjustment if in our opinion, the price being traded is not the correct market price. In these circumstances, you will always be re-offerred the amended market price for you to accept or reject.
