Spread betting on gold
Gold has been used as an investment vehicle throughout history. Today, gold prices move in accordance with supply and demand and are very responsive to geo-political events. Today gold is used not only for investment but as a valuable industrial material, particular in the area of electronics as gold is an excellent conductor of electricity.
Spread betting on gold allows you to profit from price movements, without the logistical problems of buying physical bullion. Spread betting on gold will also relieve you from the often prohibitively large financial commitments of trading the underlying futures contracts (Min $10 per tick for gold and margin required of $3,000 to $4,000 per lot). With Cantor Index, you can place bets with stakes as low as £1 per point. As with all spread bets, your profits are tax-free*.

*Tax-free refers to no Capital Gains Tax on profits. Tax laws may change or differ depending on your personal circumstances.
Spread bets are leveraged products placing your capital at risk. You need deposit only a small percentage of the value of the bet. However, your losses may substantially exceed that deposit very rapidly and thus require you to make additional deposits at short notice to maintain your bets. Spread bets are not suitable for all customers. Cantor Index Limited provides an execution only service and does not offer investment advice. Before betting, you should ensure you fully understand the risks and seek independent financial advice if necessary.
Cantor Index Limited is authorised and regulated by the Financial Services Authority, FSA register number 194414. These products are not intended for people under the age of 18 or for US residents.
