How to Spread Bet on Commerzbank

How to Spread Bet on Commerzbank?


If you want to invest in firms like Commerzbank then one option could be spread betting on the Commerzbank share price.

Looking at a spread betting website like Capitalspreads, you can see that they are offering the Commerzbank Rolling Daily market at €1.48 - €1.51. Therefore, an investor can spread trade on the Commerzbank share price:

  Commerzbank Spread Betting Example Increasing above €1.51, or
  Commerzbank Trading Example Decreasing below €1.48

When spread betting on German equities you trade in £x per cent. So, if you choose to have a stake of £4 per cent and the Commerzbank share price changes by €0.23 then that would be a difference to your P&L of £92. £4 per cent x €0.23 = £92.

Note that you can also trade this market in Euros or Dollars, e.g. $x per cent.

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so there is no settlement date for this market. If your trade is open at the end of the day, it will just roll over into the next trading session.

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

  Commerzbank Trading Example Rise - then you usually pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Commerzbank Trading Example Fall - then you'll often receive a small payment to your account

For a more detailed example see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Commerzbank Rolling Daily - German Equities Trading Example


If you take the above spread of €1.48 - €1.51 and assume that:
  • You've completed your stock market analysis, and
  • Your research suggests the Commerzbank shares are likely to increase and go above €1.51
Then you could buy at €1.51 and risk £15 per cent.

With such a spread bet you make a profit of £15 for every cent that the Commerzbank shares rise higher than €1.51. Nevertheless, it also means that you will make a loss of £15 for every cent that the Commerzbank market decreases lower than €1.51.

Thinking of this in a slightly different way, if you ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your profit/loss is found 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 your stake.

If after a few sessions the share price rose then you might consider closing your spread bet so that you can secure your profit. So if the market moved up then the spread, set by the spreads firm, might be adjusted to €1.57 - €1.60. In order to close your trade you would sell at €1.57. So, with the same £15 stake this trade would make you a profit of:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (€1.57 - €1.51) x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = €0.06 x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = 6c x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = £90 profit

Speculating on equities, whether by spread trading or otherwise, doesn't always work out as you would have liked. With this example, you had bet that the share price would go up. However, the share price can also go down.

If the Commerzbank shares had fallen then you might decide to close/settle your trade to limit your losses.

Should the market drop to €1.44 - €1.47 then you would settle/close your trade by selling at €1.44. So your loss would be calculated as:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (€1.44 - €1.51) x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -€0.07 x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -7c x £15 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -£105 loss

Note - Commerzbank Rolling Daily equities market correct as of 18-Dec-12.
