The Trendwatch Managed Account has several major advantages over other investment options:

  • Under current UK tax legislation, spread betting is exempt from UK income or capital taxes; therefore TAM clients’ profits carry no further liability to UK taxation.*


  • TAM will trade short as well as long, giving it the potential to perform well in all market conditions.


  • TAM helps protect investors from downside risk by using a guaranteed stop loss limit on all trades.


  • We use unique trend analysis techniques proven by results published in Trendwatch since 2000 to deliver market-beating investment performance.


  • The minimum investment is £5,000, but you may invest any amount, so long as it is in multiples of £5,000. You can add funds at any time in multiples of £5,000. Similarly, you may withdraw funds at any time, subject to a minimum balance of £5,000.


  • Each client has their own private account, legally owned by them, which is then fully managed by TAM. All client funds are held with WorldSpreads, a London Stock Exchange-listed, FSA regulated brokerage firm. Your account is protected by the Investor Compensation Scheme.**


  • Client accounts can be viewed online at any time, including the live daily statement (profit / loss) providing total transparency to the client. Alternatively, you call us for a full update.


  • TAM is a geared investment; our clients are not required to put up the full amount of their market exposure. This is why it is possible to open an account with as little as £5,000, which gives you exposure to approximately £25,000 of assets.


* If you are in any doubt as to the tax position, especially if you live or work outside the UK, you should seek professional tax advice.
** 100% of first £30,000; 90% of the next £20,000.
