About us

The Armchair Trader is a comprehensive data resource for online traders seeking more information on providers of global trading accounts. Founded by former employees of CMC Markets, one of the biggest providers of retail CFD trading globally, The Armchair Trader seeks to deliver up to date information on the trading choices currently available to investors in financial markets.

We currently provide news, education and industry data to the end users of spread betting and CFD trading accounts. Our information is used by traders to keep abreast of which companies are in the market, and the margin facilities and spreads they can offer.

We realise that the delivery of online trading services is becoming increasingly competitive, and that it is important that consumers have somewhere they can go for an independent take on this fast-growing industry. We will be working to continue to expand the data and features available on this portal. If there is anything you would like to see featured on The Armchair Trader, please contact us.
