How to Start Day Trading in the UK

To start day trading in the UK, you need a UK-regulated broker that offers the markets you want (e.g. shares, spread betting, or CFDs). Check the FCA register to make sure your broker is authorised and your money is protected.

Be aware of tax: spread betting can be tax-free, but profits from share dealing or CFDs may be subject to capital gains tax. Keep records from the start. Then focus on learning and practising with a demo account before risking real money.
