	Spread Betting \| Guide to Spread Betting
		Financial Spread betting is one of the most exciting and fastest growing ways of speculating on the movement of an underlying share or index and for many investors it has become a flexible and cost efficient alternative to trading ordinary shares.
		Spread betting is traded on margin, which means that you simply need to place a deposit when you open a trade of only a % of the positions total value.
		Spread betting companies often offer two types of account a deposit account where you have to have enough money to cover the notional trading requirement on your account or a credit account where by you have a set level of credit against the notional trading requirement.

	Spread betting - T2W Traderpedia
		Spread betting differs from fixed odds conventional betting in that the outcome of the bet is not a binary event, i.e win a fixed amount or lose the entire stake, which means profits and losses can theoretically be unlimited and the open profit or loss will fluctuate continually until the bet is closed.
		A spread bettor buys at one end of the spread (the offer price) and sells at the other (the bid price), and if the spread has moved far enough in the right direction between the time he buys and sells (or sells and buys, as he may bet on either direction), he makes money.
		Spread betting profits are almost always tax-free (and losses non-tax-deductible) although in some cases if profits constitute a professional trader's only source of income then the Inland Revenue may choose to make the trader liable to income or capital gains tax.

	GENTLE INTRODUCTION TO SPREAD BETTING - BookieBusters
		The Spread Betting Firm (bookie) makes a prediction on a particular aspect of a sporting event, such as how many goals will be scored in a game of football.

		This is of course a very simple example, but we don't see the need to complicate matters at this stage as we will be adding to this basic introduction over the next few days and going into greater detail and depth of the subtleties involved in plundering the camel-coated brigade at spread-betting.
