CFD trading and financial spread betting typically require the
deposit of a small percentage of the total trade value. As the
financial outcome is determined by the price movement on the total
trade value, profits and losses can quickly exceed the initial
deposit and may require additional financing. Ensure you
understand the risks as these products are not suitable for
everyone. These products are only intended for people who are
over 18.
