There's nothing wrong with using SB's on FEP as long as you're only buying the equivalent number of shares you would have bought, that you have 100% to cover any margin calls & you don't use stop losses. You should be able to get Jun positions which will take you to 19th June which should be long enough until news arrives if not you can always roll them over for only small charge.
Why buy the shares & put up the full amount of the money when you can stick up to 75% in the bank earning interest & don't have to pay CGT on any profits?
