Yes, unfortunately you can get, with spread bet companies, i.e. new style bucket shops, slippage or, indeed a failure to actually honour prices. I trade off an ISA, and as such, have grown used to this style of trading, i.e. buying real assets. But thank you anyway.Have a look at indices as well as UK stocks as it has a far greater potential.

Hi out of interest, which firms do you use for index trading please?Understood - I was going to do exactly that for my grandchildren but it became a new 'job' for me so I quickly realised that I'd rather be out playing golf!
If I can help let me know.

Interesting. Fair play to him. Sounds like a deep psychological issue going on there. But that's the dedication you need to be really really good. I take it he was trading indexes only.I used to trade with CMC Markets but then a pal of mine opened up an account with ampfutures.com and he did so well I stopped trading and gave 5k of my money to him to trade for me for a heafty commission - but he traded so much he burned himself out. He made over £1/3m for himself but his health suffered badly so it was not worth it for him in the longterm. He regularly got between 40% and 50% per month due entirely to his dedication so it is a double edged sword. His system was sound too and although he made many losses they were small and controlled.
