Spread betting vs CFD trading on interest rate futures

  5. Trade without paying commission

Why trade CFDs?

  1. Use leverage for a decreased initial outlay*
  2. Deal on rising and falling markets
  3. Pay no stamp duty2
  4. Offset losses against profits for CGT purposes2
  5. Trade 17,000+ markets
  6. Use prices based on the underlying market
CFD trading account

*Spread betting and CFD trading involves high risk. That’s because leverage can magnify both your profits and your losses as they’ll be based on the full exposure to the trade, not just the initial margin deposit required to open it. This means losses as well as profits could far outweigh your margin, so always ensure you’re trading within your means.

Interest rate trading costs: spreads

Spread betting Normal CFD contract
SONIA (3-month) 1 1
Australian 3-Day Interbank Rate 1 1
Euribor (3-month) 1 1
Eurodollar (3-month) 1.6 1.6

Interest rate spread bet product details

Interest rate CFD product details

With spread betting, you’ll bet per point that the market moves. As the cost of the trade is encompassed in the spread, you’ll pay no commission charges either.

With CFDs, the difference in the underlying interest rate’s price from when you opened your position versus when you’ve closed it determines your profit – or loss. CFDs are free from stamp duty in the UK and you’ll be charged in the spread, so you’ll pay no commission charges.2

Spread bets and CFDs are complex instruments and come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. 69% of retail investor accounts lose money when trading spread bets and CFDs with this provider. You should consider whether you understand how spread bets and CFDs work and whether you can afford to take the high risk of losing your money. 

Professional clients trading spread bets and CFDs can lose more than they deposit.

Options and futures are complex instruments which come with a high risk of losing money rapidly due to leverage. They’re not suitable for most investors. Before you invest, you should consider whether you understand how options and futures work, the risks of trading these instruments and whether you can afford to lose more than your original investment.

Trading stocks and shares ‘on margin’ within a US options and futures account – meaning that you only finance part of the cost of acquiring a position in a security – carries additional risks over buying securities on a fully funded basis and may result in losses exceeding your original investment. Trading on margin will also result in additional costs to you as the investor and any securities purchased using margin may be held as collateral by the lender, restricting both your rights as shareholder, and your ability to use the securities until the margin trade is closed. You should familiarise yourself with these risks before trading on margin.

The value of shares, ETFs and other ETPs bought through a share dealing account, a US options and futures account, a stocks and shares ISA or a SIPP can fall as well as rise, which could mean getting back less than you originally put in. Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Some ETPs carry additional risks depending on how they’re structured, investors should ensure they familiarise themselves with the differences before investing.
