What part of the HMRC rule don't you understand? forget it i am talking to morons
Dont be so fast to insult others, you have misunderstood the quote from HMRC all gambling Including spreadbetting is tax free even if it is your only source of income.
The 'carrying on of a trade' refers to other income linked to your trading, so if your selling courses and using your trading results as the marketing then all income becomes taxable. as you like your HMRC quotes here's another one for you.
''The fact that a taxpayer has a system by which they place their bets, or that they are sufficiently successful to earn a living by gambling does not make their activities a trade.''
