    Spread Betting using your Mobile

    Joshua Raymond, Chief Market Strategist at City Index, has worked in the industry for
a number of years; he says that the difference between the early days of the spread
betting, to today, is quite remarkable:

    "Today, people can take a view on a financial market albeit equities, commodities,
indices and many more all from the comfort of their home or mobile phone,"

    Adding that they don't need to be market analysts or mathematicians; all they need to
do is pick a market, take a view and place a bet.

    "The ease of doing this today has been revolutionary to where the spread betting
industry started."
