TD Waterhouse - Financial Spread Betting
TD Waterhouse offers financial spread betting on underlying financial instruments such as equities and index markets. It is a simple, versatile service that can help you to profit from both up and downward movements in the price of an individual stock or index.
A financial spread bet is an agreement between a customer and a provider to exchange the difference between the open and closing value of the bet. With financial spread betting, you are simply speculating on the direction of the future price movements in an underlying instrument; you specify an amount you want to bet on each point movement.
Is it right for you?
Financial spread betting carries high risk, it is possible to quickly lose more money than your initial deposit and you may be required to make further deposits at short notice. Financial spread betting is not for everyone so please ensure you understand the risks.
The value of your investments can go down as well as up. You may not get back all the funds you invest.
