“Very reliable and professional”
★★★★★
written by wayva on 09/11/2021
I've used Independent Investor in the past and I was happy with the material and tutorials present on the site but now they really improved their service by providing by far better comparison service. The most important thing for me is that I can find all the information about brokers in one place and compare the features on offer. I used them to change my spread betting broker and will happily use them again when the time comes.

“Easy to use and compare”
★★★★★
written by nqAlvarado190 on 01/12/2020
I know there are plenty of comparison websites online but many of them have outdated reviews and comparison tables and but they still show up first in search engines. I know, independentinvestor doesn't offer many brokers to compare but the main thing is that their comparison tables are up to date and actually offer value for visitors/traders like me. Thanks a lot. I know about forex and other trading instruments so I didn't read the guides as I was after a financial spread betting broker I could trust.

“A decent educational portal”
★★★★☆
written by m1lkyway on 17/11/2019
A decent educational portal. A good place to learn different investment options and what and how is traded. The best thing... they have unbiased reviews, not scared to shame and blame. The poor thing... Not enough broker reviews... I understand it takes time to manually review brokers but it'd be better to have more brokers reviewed. Overall... A free resources with lots of information.

“Good but could be improved”
★★★★☆
written by Cahillof121 on 26/09/2019
I have used independentinvestor.com for many years now. I have to say, before they were better. Now, they are a bit outdated. Still lots of good information but it needs to be kept up to date.

Exactly what I was looking for. While many try to get you as a customer to trade, independentinvestor.com covers different means of trading and what options are available so I could make my own choice and chose the broker which suits me.

Fantastic guide to financial spread betting, thanks a lot. Took me about 2 hours just to find out if spread betting is tax free as there are too many arguments about it. Thanks a lot for answering my questions about spread betting and trading.

IndependentInvestor.com is definitely one of the websites I'd follow and read. They keep straight on the topic, bring up the latest reviews and news, information presented in a compact way and they provide only relevant information. When it comes to trading options in the UK, they are ones to beat.

“Great deal of valuable information”
★★★★★
written by paulcramer on 04/12/2014
I am a new trader, and was searching for information and guides on Spread Betting (in particular), and found IndependentInvestors' website offered me a great deal of information and guidance. Their website provides easy access to the information needed. I especially found the broker rating section to be an incredible source. Honest reviews posted, as well as incentives and bonus offerings. What makes this source even better is that there is no fee to peruse the wealth of information provided.

“Good Choice of Spread Betting Brokers”
★★★★☆
written by 467Cole on 10/11/2014
IndependentInvestor list a good choice of financial spread betting brokers. The table is very accurate and up-to-date, and all the brokers are fully regulated. Maybe they should add a bit more brokers to have a wider range but as it stands they still provide very good service.

“Spread Betting Broker Reviews Independent Investor”
★★★★★
written by KmbrlSams99a on 04/09/2014
If you are new to trading, specifically financial spread betting, Forex, CFDs and binary betting and share trading, then I highly recommend you take a visit over to Independent Investor. The site is full of information for people either that are new or are experienced. The site is easy to navigate, and has loads of pages in each category. One of the best areas on the website is the large amount of broker reviews, the staff at IndependentInvestor writes their honest review based on a comprehensive list of key features and topics, website visitors are encouraged to leave their reviews and ranking on brokers based on their experiences. I check the website on a weekly basis, but in the event I need information, Independent Investor is my go to site first.

Patternp20's Response to m1lkyway's Review
Written on: 06/05/2022
Head and Shoulders reversal
The pattern contains three successive peaks, with the middle peak (head) being the highest and the two outside peaks (shoulders) being low and roughly equal. The reaction lows of each peak can be connected to form support, or a neckline.
As its name implies, the Head and Shoulders reversal pattern is made up of a left shoulder, a head, a right shoulder, and a neckline. Other parts playing a role in the pattern are volume, the breakout, price target and support turned resistance. We will look at each part individually, and then put them together with some examples.
Prior Trend: It is important to establish the existence of a prior uptrend for this to be a reversal pattern. Without a prior uptrend to reverse, there cannot be a Head and Shoulders reversal pattern (or any reversal pattern for that matter).
Left Shoulder: While in an uptrend, the left shoulder forms a peak that marks the high point of the current trend. After making this peak, a decline ensues to complete the formation of the shoulder (1). The low of the decline usually remains above the trend line, keeping the uptrend intact.

Head: From the low of the left shoulder, an advance begins that exceeds the previous high and marks the top of the head. After peaking, the low of the subsequent decline marks the second point of the neckline (2). The low of the decline usually breaks the uptrend line, putting the uptrend in jeopardy.
Right Shoulder: The advance from the low of the head forms the right shoulder. This peak is lower than the head (a lower high) and usually in line with the high of the left shoulder. While symmetry is preferred, sometimes the shoulders can be out of whack. The decline from the peak of the right shoulder should break the neckline.
Neckline: The neckline forms by connecting low points 1 and 2. Low point 1 marks the end of the left shoulder and the beginning of the head. Low point 2 marks the end of the head and the beginning of the right shoulder. Depending on the relationship between the two low points, the neckline can slope up, slope down or be horizontal. The slope of the neckline will affect the pattern's degree of bearishness—a downward slope is more bearish than an upward slope. In some cases, multiple low points can be used to form the neckline.
Volume: As the Head and Shoulders pattern unfolds, volume plays an important role in confirmation. Volume can be measured as an indicator (OBV, Chaikin Money Flow) or simply by analyzing volume levels. Ideally, but not always, volume during the advance of the left shoulder should be higher than during the advance of the head. Together, the decrease in volume and the new high of the head serve as a warning sign. The next warning sign comes when volume increases on the decline from the peak of the head, then decreases during the advance of the right shoulder. Final confirmation comes when volume further increases during the decline of the right shoulder.

Neckline Break: The head and shoulders pattern is not complete and the uptrend is not reversed until neckline support is broken. Ideally, this should also occur in a convincing manner, with an expansion in volume.

Support Turned Resistance: Once support is broken, it is common for this same support level to turn into resistance. Sometimes, but certainly not always, the price will return to the support break, and offer a second chance to sell.
Price Target: After breaking neckline support, the projected price decline is found by measuring the distance from the neckline to the top of the head. This distance is then subtracted from the neckline to reach a price target. Any price target should serve as a rough guide, and other factors should be considered as well. These factors might include previous support levels, Fibonacci retracements, or long-term moving averages.
