I do a fair amount of spread betting and buying/selling shares.

A good brief introduction is Naked Trader by Robbie Burns but it mainly focuses on investments rather than spread betting but I have heard he is writing a book dedicated to spread betting. Another very good and more comprehensive book is Welcome to my Trading Room by Dr Alexander Elder ... a must read for anybody thinking about taking the plunge !

A viable career ?? Definately can be but not as easy as you might think ... I'm still working on it !

Hope this helps
