If you’re involved in spread betting or CFD trading, it’s understandable that you’ll want to make a profit from your trading. Different traders have different strategies with varying levels of success, but gender is seen as being important. Research conducted by a Cambridge University professor showed that when it came to trading on the markets, women were seen as better at making important decisions than men, and that they were more cautious in their approach.

There has been a huge rise in the number of women traders, and the fact that many of them are making significant profits every year could be put down to being more pragmatic when it comes to their trading. As the infographic clearly displays, the average annual profit of the top female traders is over £250,000, with the top one making over five times that amount. This proves that women are just as capable of being successful as men in this field.
