The few times I've looked at spread betting and other 'bets' offered by foreign bookmakers, I came away with the impression that these were essentially complex options plays that were being 'marked up' for sale.

In any case , the operations are much more akin to bookmaking on sports or horse racing than auction based trading markets, with the usual high vig built in.

Has anyone 'traded' successfully with these guys?
