Before you start spread betting on the future price movements of major indices such as

which spread betting provider [http://www.cityindex.co.uk ] is right for you.

initial deposit between only 1% and 10% of the underlying market's total value.

with your City Index spread betting account
[http://www.cityindex.co.uk/spread-betting/start-spread-betting.aspx ] - with the added
potential to net a tax-free* profit.
Regardless of whether a spread bet market rises or falls; there is potential for
profit due to its 'go long' and 'go short' feature.
