Ban all Spread Betting, CFD, and Binary Option provider's from the UK market

Closed 29 signatures

What the petition asks

Spread Betting, CFD, and Binary Option provider's are manipulating the UK stock market to such an extent, that it creates very high levels of volatility within our top 250 UK listed companies.
The resulting fallout from these providers has turned what was once an optional investment strategy for private investors, into a cesspool of manipulated criminality that now controls our stock market through what are known as 'STOP-OUT' clauses.
