Product Description
The book is aimed at people who are new to spread betting. They may have heard about it or read about it but have not done any trades themselves and are keen to find out how to do so, from getting information to calling around for the best deals. It is for people who are familiar with the stock market either through investment in equity funds or through owning shares themselves. In other words, they are novice spread betters but not novice investors. The aim is to write a book that is accessible to investors with a basic grasp of investing and yet interesting enough for the more experienced trader. This will be achieved by the book's format - starting from basic what/when/why/where/who in the first five chapters and progresses to 'how' in detail.

Timewaster
This book contains nothing that isn't already available in a brochure from any spread betting firm. After I had read it I felt that the author's money making strategy for spread betting is to write books on the subject.She got my money but more importantly my time. There is nothing in this book just a couple of stories. It is a cynical effort - don't be fooled.
The Basics for the Beginner
This book is excellent if you are a beginner however if doesn't give any decent strategies. It basically tells you buy at support level, sell at resistance level etc. It doesn't tell you anything decent about how to pick stocks not recommended if you are a advanced spread better.
Good for absolute beginners
I found this book very simplistic and I have only been spread betting for 3 weeks.This is for the complete novice spread better BEFORE he or she embarks upon it.It lacks depth and will leave most investors who have dabbled with shares disappointed as its not meaty enough on any topic.
