Spread Betting

Trade tax-free with TeraFX (UK Clients only). Spread Betting allows you to speculate on the price movement of a financial market.

When spread betting, you are not buying or selling an underlying asset, you are simply betting on the direction of the price. You only need to put up a small amount of the trade value to open that position.

Here at TeraFX, we give you more options which means more opportunities. With Spread betting you can go long and short, ensuring you are able to take full advantage of any conditions the Markets throw your way. But remember if market moves against you can also incur losses and for professional clients losses can exceed deposits due to trading on margin.

Both allow you to trade global financial instruments on margin, across a range of asset classes.
