How to Spread Bet on Irish Shares - Abbey Rolling Daily
Should an investor want to invest in firms such as Abbey then one possibility could be to spread bet on the Abbey share price.
Looking at the Capitalspreads site, they are giving the Abbey Rolling Daily market at €5.19 - €5.38. As a result, you could spread trade on the Abbey share price:
- Rising higher than €5.38, or
- Falling lower than €5.19
When placing a spread bet on Irish shares you trade in £x per cent. So, if you chose to have a stake of £10 per cent and the Abbey shares move €0.05 then there would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £50. £10 per cent x €0.05 = £50.
Note that you can also invest in this market in Euros or Dollars, e.g. €x per cent.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
One important thing to note is that this is a 'Rolling Daily Market' and therefore it does not have a set closing date. If a trade is still open when the markets close at the end of the day, it will simply roll over to the next session.
If your spread bet does roll over and you are speculating on the market to:
- Move up - then you are charged a small overnight financing fee, or
- Move down - then a small payment is normally credited to your account
Our article Rolling Daily Spread Betting goes into more detail about Rolling Daily Markets and includes a fully worked example.
Abbey Rolling Daily - Irish Shares Spread Trading Example
Now, if you think about the above spread of €5.19 - €5.38 and assume:
- you have done your analysis of the markets, and
- it leads you to feel that the Abbey share price looks like it will move above €5.38
then you could decide to buy at €5.38 and risk £5 per cent.
This means that you make a profit of £5 for every cent that the Abbey shares increase and go higher than €5.38. Conversely, however, it also means that you will lose £5 for every cent that the Abbey market decreases below €5.38.
Considering this from another angle, if you ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your profit/loss is found by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
If after a few trading sessions the shares spread betting market moved higher then you could consider closing your spread bet to lock in your profit.
If that happened then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, might change to €5.65 - €5.84. You would settle/close your trade by selling at €5.65. Therefore, with the same £5 stake you would calculate your profit as:
Profits (or losses) = (Closing Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (€5.65 - €5.38) x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = €0.27 x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = 27c x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = £135 profit
Speculating on shares, whether by spread betting or otherwise, is not always easy. In this case, you had bet that the share price would go up. However, it can also fall.
If the Abbey stock had started to fall then you could choose to close your trade in order to restrict your losses.
So if the market fell to €5.14 - €5.33 then this means you would settle your trade by selling at €5.14. This would result in a loss of:
Profits (or losses) = (Closing Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (€5.14 - €5.38) x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = -€0.24 x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = -24c x £5 per cent stake
Profits (or losses) = -£120 loss
Note - Abbey Rolling Daily spread betting market accurate as of 05-Dec-11.
