Binary options trading and UK taxes

I know that spread betting is not subject to capital gains tax, but CFD is. Can UK subscribers advise if binary options are exempt from CG.

Apparently it is tax-free in the UK:

Scroll to the bottom of the page:

and you will read: Winnings are tax-free in the U.K.

It is always wise to do more search though. The more confirmations the better.

Don't know about binary options but the whole spread bet thing is not quite that clean cut as were led to believe. Spread betting is only considered tax free if it is not your main source of income. that is to say that you have a job and already pay tax and NI. Tax sees spread betting as a form of gambling but like a professional gambler if its your main source of income its taxable. Pretty sure that's the 'proper' stance on it but im 99% sure if you were using a spread bet account they would never question it anyway as im sure many probably do.

Thought binaries were gambling so it's tax free?!
