I've been saying that for donkeys and getting laughed at. maybe now someone will take heed lol
Futex spend tens of thousands on legal and council opinions. Spreadbetting in nearly all circunstances wold not be taxable, but there are situations where other law takes precedence. Its about "professionalism". if gambling, is your profession, you are liable to tax.
Easy enough to claim you have another 'profession', I would have thought?
S'not what futex solicitors think.
I'd hazard that professional quals/experience or something would cinch it.
You're assuming that's the view the solicitors were assessing. We don't know that to be the case.
Thanks for the Legal ruling but I cannot see how a case concerning Horse racing would hold water with regards to Derivatives trading, that is tenuous at best.
Also I've been told by an Accountant today that you can not use
your CGT allowance against day trading profits (broker not sb) as
it's considered a business activity and not investment.
Has anybody heard this before?
