 Overview: A newer entrant to the financial spread betting market is Capital Spreads, which has built its business on competitive pricing and a customer friendly trading environment. It has proved a popular destination for beginners, especially as the company does everything, via its unique account management system, to ensure that its clients trade the knowledge that all their positions are protected by an automated stop loss facility. You will also find some of the tightest spreads in the market at Capital. For example, the company’s Rolling Daily FTSE spread is just two points, the Rolling Daily Wall Street spread is four points while the Rolling Daily GBP/USD is just three points.
Markets: Capital Spreads offer a wide variety of bets on financial products which include: indices, shares (UK and US), currencies (FX), commodities (metals, oils and coffee), interest rates and bonds. You can bet on the future, cash (which expire at the end of each day) and rolling daily products.
Rolling daily bets provide a cost-effective way to trade short and medium term positions. These bets do not expire at the end of the day but are automatically ‘rolled over’ to the next trading day. The spread on these bets is very tight, increasing the opportunity of profitable trading. The bets never expire – they continue until either you trade out of them, or your stop level is hit.

Binary betting: like many spread betting companies Capital offers binary bets. This offers you a simple but dynamic betting experience, as it works on a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ principle. If you are right it makes up at 100 but if wrong the bet is settled at 0. For example, will the Daily FTSE close up or down? Capital Spreads’ price is 47-52. You place a £1 ‘buy’ bet at 52. This means that you will gain £1 per point if the market begins to go up, and you will lose £1 a point should it go down.
Then, either the market closes up and the bet settles at 100, so you win £48 (100-52 x £1), or the market closes down in which case the bet settles at 0, so you lose £52 (52 x £1).
Capital spreads offers hourly and daily binary markets. If you’re new to binary bets there is an incentive to have a go through Capital since the company will give you a rebate of £100 of any losses on your first three bets.
Size: Capital Spreads is a division of London Capital Group, an AIM listed financial services provider. It is one of the smaller spread betting outfits and relatively new to the market, but it is popular with punters who place a high priority on customer service and competitive pricing.
