What Is Spread Betting? 

Spread Betting is when an investor bets on the price movement either
upwards or downwards, the amount of profit or
loss depends on the level of the stake, the extent of the price movement
(measured in points or pounds) and the point at which the bet is closed.
How much you win or lose depends upon the margin of how right or wrong your bet turns out to be.
The more you are right the more you win and conversley the more you are wrong then the more you lose.

Spread Betting - Recommended Reading 

Bets and the City is based on the authors enormously popular column for Finspreads.

"I soon discovered that most traders and spread betters go broke within the first year. And I was determined that wasn't going to happen to me I come from a gambling family and it looked pretty easy just BUY or SELL how hard is that? I reckoned that even if my novel failed to hit the best-sellers at least I wouldn't find myself living in a garret.
So I approached the markets with magnificently misplaced optimism and made sure not to tell my financial adviser or my big brother what I was doing as they would only have stopped me."

Bets and the City takes you inside the dealing room of the UK's leading spread betting firm as Sally begins her transformation from naive beginner
to hardened pessimist. Her Spread Betting Diary is frank, factual (these are all real trades) and fun especially when she unwittingly finds herself inadvertently elevated to the status of a trading Agony aunt. "The best advice I can give is that you should do exactly the opposite of what I do that way you're much more likely to win" she tells one fellow trader.

This is an ideal book for anyone interested in spread betting whether experienced or complete beginner. In between the funny bits there is some really useful information for example you never take a holiday in Cornwall when you're speculating on sterling against the dollar.

Spread Betting On Wikipedia 

Spread betting is any of various types of wagering on the outcome of an event, where the pay-off is based on the accuracy of the wager, rather than a simple "win or lose" outcome, which is known as fixed-odds or money-line betting. A spread is a range of outcomes, and the bet is whether the outcome will be above or below the spread. Spread betting has been a major growth market in the UK in recent years, with the number of gamblers heading towards one million.The Sunday Times: World Cup to kick off boom in spread betting Spread betting carries a high level of risk, with potential losses or gains far in excess of the original money wagered.The Times: The perils of spread-betting In the UK, spread betting is regulated by the Financial Services Authority rather than the Gambling
