How to Spread Bet on Carmax? |
Should you decide to speculate on firms such as Carmax then one option could be to spread trade on the Carmax share price.
Looking at a spread betting website like Tradefair, we can see that they have priced the Carmax Rolling Daily market at $39.88 - $39.95. As a result, an investor could spread bet on the Carmax shares:
 Moving above $39.95, or
 Moving below $39.88
When financial spread betting on S&P 500 shares you trade in £x per cent. Therefore, should you choose to invest £2 per cent and the Carmax share price moves $0.34 then that would alter your bottom line by £68. £2 per cent x $0.34 = £68.
Note that you can also invest in this market in Dollars or Euros, e.g. $x per cent.
Rolling Daily Equities Markets
Note that this is a Rolling Daily Market and therefore 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 will stay open and roll over into the next day.
If you allow your trade to roll over and are spread betting on the market to:
Rise - then you normally pay a small overnight financing fee, or
Fall - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account
For a worked example please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Carmax Rolling Daily - US Shares Spread Trading Example |
If you think about the above spread of $39.88 - $39.95 and make the assumptions:
- You have analysed the company, and
- Your research leads you to think the Carmax shares are likely to increase and go above $39.95
Then you may decide that you want to buy at $39.95 and risk £4 per cent.
This means that you win £4 for every cent that the Carmax shares go higher than $39.95. However, such a bet also means that you will lose £4 for every cent that the Carmax market moves lower than $39.95.
Looked at another way, should you buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are found 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 your stake.
As a result, if after a few sessions the stock started to increase then you might want to close your trade in order to secure your profit.
Taking this a step further, if the market did go up then the spread might move to $40.25 - $40.32. You would settle your position by selling at $40.25. Accordingly, with the same £4 stake you would make:
Your Profit / loss = (Settlement Price - Initial Price) x stake
Your Profit / loss = ($40.25 - $39.95) x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = $0.30 x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = 30¢ x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = £120 profit
Trading equities can work against you. In the above example, you had bet that the share price would increase. However, the share price could decrease.
If the Carmax shares had started to drop then you might decide to settle/close your position to stop any further losses.
So if the spread fell to $39.61 - $39.68 you would close your spread bet by selling at $39.61. As a result, your loss would be:
Your Profit / loss = (Settlement Price - Initial Price) x stake
Your Profit / loss = ($39.61 - $39.95) x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -$0.34 x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -34¢ x £4 per cent stake
Your Profit / loss = -£136 loss
Note - Carmax Rolling Daily spread accurate as of 06-Feb-13.
