How to Spread Bet on Cabot Oil & Gas

How to Spread Bet on Cabot Oil & Gas?


If you want to invest in US companies such as Cabot Oil & Gas then one option could be to spread trade on the Cabot Oil & Gas share price.

Looking at a site like capital spreads, you can see they are currently pricing the Cabot Oil & Gas Rolling Daily market at $53.78 - $53.87. This means an investor can spread bet on the Cabot Oil & Gas share price:

  Cabot Oil & Gas Trading Example Going higher than $53.87, or
  Cabot Oil & Gas Spread Betting Example Going lower than $53.78

Whilst making a spread bet on US shares you trade in £x per cent. Therefore, should you decide to risk £4 per cent and the Cabot Oil & Gas shares move $0.39 then there would be a difference to your profit/loss of £156. £4 per cent x $0.39 = £156.

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

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

An important aspect of this Rolling Daily Market is that there is no preset settlement date for this market. If your trade is still open at the end of the trading day, it will simply roll over to the next trading day.

If you do roll over a bet and you are spread betting that the market will:

  Cabot Oil & Gas Spread Betting Example Increase - then you are charged a small overnight financing fee, or
  Cabot Oil & Gas Spread Betting Example Decrease - then you will often receive a small payment to your account

Cabot Oil & Gas Rolling Daily - US Shares Spread Betting Example


So, if we consider the spread of $53.78 - $53.87 and make the assumptions that:
  • You've completed your market research, and
  • Your analysis suggests the Cabot Oil & Gas shares are likely to increase and go higher than $53.87
Then you might buy a spread bet at $53.87 and invest, for example, £2 per cent.

This means that you make a profit of £2 for every cent that the Cabot Oil & Gas shares go above $53.87. Conversely, however, you will lose £2 for every cent that the Cabot Oil & Gas market goes lower than $53.87.

Put another way, should you buy a spread bet then your P&L is worked out by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the initial price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.

As a result, if after a few hours the share price started to increase then you might think about closing your spread bet so that you can secure your profit. Taking this a step further, if the market rose then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to $54.41 - $54.50. To close your trade you would sell at $54.41. As a result, with the same £2 stake your profit would be calculated as:

Your Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Your Profit / loss = ($54.41 - $53.87) x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = $0.54 x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = 54¢ x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = £108 profit

Trading equities, whether by spread betting or otherwise, can work against you. With this example, you wanted the share price to rise. Of course, the share price could fall.

If the Cabot Oil & Gas shares had fallen then you might choose to close your position to stop any further losses.

So if the spread dropped to $53.41 - $53.50 then this means you would settle your spread bet by selling at $53.41. If so, that would mean you would lose:

Your Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Your Profit / loss = ($53.41 - $53.87) x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -$0.46 x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -46¢ x £2 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -£92 loss

Note - Cabot Oil & Gas Rolling Daily spread betting market accurate as of 06-Feb-13.
