An introduction to Financial Spread Betting

What are the risks?

Although Spread Betting offers a number of advantages over traditional share dealing it is important to remember that these are leveraged products which means you can lose more money than your initial deposit.

RBS Spread Trading provide a wide range of risk management tools such as guaranteed stops. Make sure you understand how they work and when to use them and most importantly, start trading with small amounts.
