How to Spread Bet on Akzo Nobel

How to Spread Bet on Akzo Nobel?


If an investor wants to speculate on European listed companies like Akzo Nobel then one possibility is to spread trade on the Akzo Nobel share price.

Looking at a spread betting site like Tradefair, you can see that they are currently pricing the Akzo Nobel Rolling Daily market at €51.35 - €51.48. Therefore, an investor could put a spread bet on the Akzo Nobel share price:

  Akzo Nobel Spread Trading Example Increasing above €51.48, or
  Akzo Nobel Spread Betting Example Decreasing below €51.35

When financial spread betting on Dutch shares you trade in £x per cent. As a result, if you decide to invest £3 per cent and the Akzo Nobel share price moves €0.31 then that would change your P&L by £93. £3 per cent x €0.31 = £93.

You can also trade this market in Euros or Dollars, e.g. $x per cent.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. If you decide to leave your trade open at the end of the day, it simply keeps rolling over into the next day.

Should your spread bet roll over, if you are speculating that the market will:

  Akzo Nobel Spread Betting Example Go up - then you'll pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Akzo Nobel Spread Betting Example Go down - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account

For a more detailed example see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Akzo Nobel Rolling Daily - Dutch Shares Spread Betting Example


So, if we consider the above spread of €51.35 - €51.48 and assume:
  • You've completed your analysis of the markets, and
  • Your research leads you to feel that the Akzo Nobel shares are likely to rise higher than €51.48
Then you may decide to go long of the market at €51.48 for a stake of £2 per cent.

So, you make a profit of £2 for every cent that the Akzo Nobel shares increase and go above €51.48. However, it also means that you will lose £2 for every cent that the Akzo Nobel market moves below €51.48.

Looking at this from another angle, if you were to buy a spread bet then your P&L is worked out by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by the stake.

With this in mind, if after a few trading sessions the shares moved higher then you could consider closing your spread bet in order to lock in your profit. So if the market increased then the spread could change to €52.02 - €52.15. You would close your trade by selling at €52.02. So, with the same £2 stake this trade would make you a profit of:

P&L = (Final Value - Opening Value) x stake
P&L = (€52.02 - €51.48) x £2 per cent stake
P&L = €0.54 x £2 per cent stake
P&L = 54c x £2 per cent stake
P&L = £108 profit

Trading equities, whether by spread trading or otherwise, is not straightforward. In this case, you had bet that the share price would go up. Of course, it might decrease.

If the Akzo Nobel share price decreased, contrary to your expectations, then you might decide to close/settle your trade in order to limit your losses.

So if the spread pulled back to €51.02 - €51.15 you would close your trade by selling at €51.02. Accordingly, your loss would be:

P&L = (Final Value - Opening Value) x stake
P&L = (€51.02 - €51.48) x £2 per cent stake
P&L = -€0.46 x £2 per cent stake
P&L = -46c x £2 per cent stake
P&L = -£92 loss

Note - Akzo Nobel Rolling Daily spread quoted as of 23-Jan-13.
