How to Spread Bet on Coca Cola? |
If an investor is looking to speculate on companies such as Coca Cola then one option could be spread trading on the Coca Cola share price.
Looking at a spread betting website like capital spreads, we can see that they are pricing the Coca Cola Rolling Daily market at $38.27 - $38.32. As a result, an investor could spread trade on the Coca Cola shares:
 Rising above $38.32, or
 Falling below $38.27
When spread trading on US equities you trade in £x per cent. As a result, if you choose to have a stake of £3 per cent and the Coca Cola share price moves $0.40 then that would change your profits (or losses) by £120. £3 per cent x $0.40 = £120.
Note that you are also able to invest in this market in Dollars or Euros, e.g. $x per cent.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
You should note that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no settlement date for this market. As a result, if your trade is still open at the end of the trading day, it just rolls over to the next day.
If a trade is rolled over and you are speculating on the market to:
Move up - then you are normally charged a small financing fee, or
Move down - then you will usually receive a small credit to your account

Coca Cola Rolling Daily - US Equities Trading Example |
Now, if we think about the above spread of $38.27 - $38.32 and make the assumptions:
- You've analysed the equities market, and
- Your analysis leads you to feel that the Coca Cola share price is likely to go higher than $38.32
Then you might decide that you want to buy at $38.32 for a stake of £3 per cent.
With such a spread bet you win £3 for every cent that the Coca Cola shares push above $38.32. Conversely, however, you will lose £3 for every cent that the Coca Cola market moves lower than $38.32.
Looked at another way, if you buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is worked out by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.
If after a few sessions the share price started to increase then you might want to close your position to secure your profit.
So if the market rose then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, might change to $38.64 - $38.69. You would close your spread bet by selling at $38.64. Therefore, with the same £3 stake your profit would be calculated as:
Profit = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profit = ($38.64 - $38.32) x £3 per cent stake
Profit = $0.32 x £3 per cent stake
Profit = 32¢ x £3 per cent stake
Profit = £96 profit
Trading equities, whether by spread betting or otherwise, can go against you. In the above example, you wanted the share price to rise. Of course, the share price could decrease.
If the Coca Cola stock began to drop then you might choose to close your trade in order to limit your losses.
If the spread dropped to $37.94 - $37.99 then this means you would close your position by selling at $37.94. That would mean you would lose:
Loss = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Loss = ($37.94 - $38.32) x £3 per cent stake
Loss = -$0.38 x £3 per cent stake
Loss = -38¢ x £3 per cent stake
Loss = -£114 loss
Note: Coca Cola Rolling Daily spread accurate as of 06-Feb-13.
