Please be aware that, what your buying and selling ( trading) , is the option price or premium. It can still be useful for hedging a spreadbet position . Don't think however that 1 point in a spreadbet equals 1 point in premium price. Having said that, IG do provide a well laid out, simple to use, platform. Why not use their excellent demo site to carry out experiments. Good luck. ( nothing to do with luck ).

Nicholas, I was drawn to your post by the word EXCITED. Please be aware that to enter the FX markets while being excited is like going into shark infested waters with a gushing leg wound. You'll be eaten in minutes. The "sheer blue" sea will turn red. Even Longcot couldn't help. Remember..... 70% fail ( I think it's more like 99% ). AS concerning your background, I quote a passage from a trading book, sorry can remember which one, take heed. [ If you apply the same strategies that you used to make yourself successful in other areas of your life, you will lose money.] contact me when you've lost 50% of your start up capital. However, if you are in the 1%. you could make Billions. Good luck ( very little to do will luck ) Nalayasmar
