How to Spread Bet on Carnival

How to Spread Bet on Carnival?


Should you decide to invest in UK listed companies such as Carnival then one solution could be spread trading on the Carnival share price.

Looking at a spread betting platform like FinancialSpreads.com, we can see they are offering the Carnival Rolling Daily market at 2460.7p - 2465.3p. As a result, an investor could spread bet on the Carnival shares:

  Carnival Spread Trading Example Moving above 2465.3p, or
  Carnival Trading Example Moving below 2460.7p

Whilst making a spread bet on FTSE 350 shares you trade in £x per penny. Therefore, if you choose to invest £5 per penny and the Carnival shares move 29p then that would change your profits (or losses) by £145. £5 per penny x 29p = £145.

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

You should note that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that it does not have a set settlement date. You do not have to close your trade, should it still be open at the end of the trading day, it simply keeps rolling over into the next trading session.

If your bet does roll over and you are speculating on the market to:

  Carnival Trading Example Move higher - then you will pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Carnival Trading Example Move lower - then a small payment will usually be credited to your account

You can learn more about Rolling Daily Markets in our article Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Carnival Rolling Daily - Equities Trading Example


Now, if you think about the spread of 2460.7p - 2465.3p and assume that:
  • You have completed your market analysis, and
  • You think the Carnival shares are likely to increase and go above 2465.3p
Then you might buy a spread bet at 2465.3p for a stake of £3 per penny.

With such a bet you make a profit of £3 for every penny that the Carnival shares push higher than 2465.3p. However, it also means that you will lose £3 for every penny that the Carnival market decreases lower than 2465.3p.

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

With this in mind, if after a few sessions the share price 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, set by the spread trading firm, might move up to 2508.4p - 2513.0p. In order to close your spread bet you would sell at 2508.4p. Therefore, with the same £3 stake:

P&L = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
P&L = (2508.4p - 2465.3p) x £3 per penny stake
P&L = 43.1p x £3 per penny stake
P&L = £129.30 profit

Financial spread trading on shares is not always simple. In the above example, you wanted the share price to rise. However, the share price can also go down.

If the Carnival stock had started to drop then you might decide to settle/close your position in order to restrict your losses.

So if the market dropped to 2416.0p - 2420.6p then you would close your trade by selling at 2416.0p. So your loss would be calculated as:

P&L = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
P&L = (2416.0p - 2465.3p) x £3 per penny stake
P&L = -49.3p x £3 per penny stake
P&L = -£147.90 loss

Note: Carnival Rolling Daily equities market quoted as of 19-Oct-12.
