### Comment:
What's the tax regime like?  Spread betting is still technically classified as gambling, therefore no income or capital gains currently.  My accountant says that I'd have to be making hundreds of thousands before HMRC even starts to get a twinkle in their eye with spread betting, and so long as I keep the day job, I am off the hook for now.

if you're trading shares you'll pay CGT but you can do spread betting on IB as well.
