Day Trades: 50% Lower Margins on our 20 Leading Equities
You can now enjoy 50% lower margins and 20% tighter spreads on our 20 leading equities, as compared to our standard equity spread bets, with Day Trades, our spread betting product designed specifically for Day Traders.
Day Trades is available to trade between 08:00 and 16:28 every trading day without the possibility to rollover the trade to the next day, and is aimed mainly at short-term traders who prefer to hold their positions only during short-term market movements spanning just a few hours within a single trading day.
Margins start from just 2.5% on leading equities such as BHP Billiton, BP, Tesco and Vodafone and from 3.75% on Anglo American, Antofagasta, Aviva, Rio Tinto, Vedanta Resources and Xstrata. Our Day Trade bets are available on spread betting accounts only.

Accessing our Day Trades prices is simple. Simply click on the spread betting tab of our online trading platform and then enter the equity name in the ‘search’ field. You will see our Day Trades prices for that stock, alongside our Rolling Spread and Futures prices in the Markets Column.
Please note that lower deposit rates could allow you to increase your risk. Please see the Terms and Policies document for the terms under which the Day Trades product operates.
