How to Spread Bet on British Land? |
If you decide to speculate on UK companies such as British Land then one solution is to spread trade on the British Land share price.
Looking at a spread trading platform like FinancialSpreads, we can see they have priced the British Land Rolling Daily market at 536.7p - 537.8p. Therefore, you can spread bet on the British Land shares:
 Increasing higher than 537.8p, or
 Decreasing lower than 536.7p
Whilst making a spread bet on UK equities you trade in £x per penny. As a result, if you decided to have a stake of £5 per penny and the British Land shares move 28p then there would be a difference to your profit/loss of £140. £5 per penny x 28p = £140.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
This is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no settlement date for this market. If a trade is still open when the markets close at the end of the day, it will simply roll over to the next trading day.
If you do roll over a trade and you are spread betting that the market will:
Go up - then you are normally charged a small financing fee, or
Go down - then you'll often receive a small payment to your account

British Land Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Betting Example |
If we consider the above spread of 536.7p - 537.8p and assume that:
- You have analysed the stock market, and
- Your analysis leads you to feel the British Land share price looks like it will move above 537.8p
Then you could decide that you want to buy at 537.8p for a stake of £10 per penny.
Therefore, you win £10 for every penny that the British Land shares increase and go higher than 537.8p. Having said that, such a bet also means that you will lose £10 for every penny that the British Land market decreases lower than 537.8p.
Put another way, if you buy a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.
With this in mind, if after a few trading sessions the shares started to increase then you might want to close your spread bet to secure your profit.
So if the market moved up then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to 552.6p - 553.7p. In order to close/settle your position you would sell at 552.6p. Accordingly, with the same £10 stake:
Profit / loss = (Settlement Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (552.6p - 537.8p) x £10 per penny stake
Profit / loss = 14.8p x £10 per penny stake
Profit / loss = £148.00 profit
Financial spread trading on shares is not always easy. In this case, you wanted the share price to rise. However, the share price can also fall.
If the British Land share price had fallen then you might choose to close your trade to limit your losses.
So if the market pulled back to 524.9p - 526.0p you would settle/close your trade by selling at 524.9p. If so, your loss would be calculated as:
Profit / loss = (Settlement Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (524.9p - 537.8p) x £10 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -12.9p x £10 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -£129.00 loss
Note - British Land Rolling Daily spread betting market correct as of 19-Oct-12.
