Spread Betting on the UK 100

Spread betting on the UK 100 is an excellent way of gaining exposure to a large number of shares in one bet. You can take a view on how the whole share market will move, rather than trading an individual stock. Spread bets on the UK 100 are among the most popular products at Cantor Index.

Spread betting on indices like the UK 100 also allows you to bet from as little as £1 per point movement which is significantly smaller than the minimum contract size available if trading the UK 100 in other ways. As with all financial spread bets your profits from betting on the movement of the UK 100 Index, are tax-free.

Cantor Index offers the following UK 100 markets:

  • Daily UK 100 Cash
  • Daily UK 100 Future
  • Monthly UK 100 Future
  • Quarterly UK 100 Future

These UK 100 markets can be traded 24 hours a day, which is outside of the normal dealing hours of the London Stock Exchange (8.00am - 4.30pm) and LIFFE (8.00am to 5.30pm).

Spread bets are high-risk products; 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.
