Welcome to the hot seat. Here’s where you find out what
spread betting and CFD trading are really all about.
If you’re at all unsure of whether this type of investment is
for you, try the simulator first to see how well you do. The gains
and losses you make here will all be examples, so no real money is
at stake. So feel free to be as bold or as cautious as you
like - you won’t make or lose a single real penny. However,
you will gain valuable experience of how the markets operate and
what you can make from them.
How it works
The aim of the simulator is to emulate a similar environment
which you will encounter if you were to open an account and trade
with your own money. Once fully familiarised, you will be able to
explore the advantages of spread betting and trading CFDs with
confidence.
The trading simulator is designed to familiarise you with 'live
trading' but without risk. You will be given a theoretical £10,000
to trade with, rather than using real money.
