How to Spread Bet on the Denmark 20? |
As with many global financial markets, you can place a spread bet on stock market indices, such as the Denmark 20, to rise or fall.
If you were to look at the IGIndex spread betting website, they are showing the Denmark 20 March Futures market at 462.00 - 463.30. Therefore, you could spread trade on the Denmark 20 index:
- Finishing higher than 463.30, or
- Finishing lower than 462.00
On the expiry date for this 'March' market, 18-Mar-11.
When financial spread trading on the Denmark 20 index you trade in £x per point. As a result, if you decided to have a stake of £20 per point and the Denmark 20 moves 5.00 points then that would alter your profit/loss by £100. £20 per point x 5.00 points = £100.
For short term trading on stock market indices also see Stock Market Indices Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Denmark 20 Futures Spread Betting Example
Now, if you consider the spread of 462.00 - 463.30 and make the assumptions:
- You have completed your research, and
- You think that the Denmark 20 index will close above 463.30 by 18-Mar-11
Then you could decide that you want to buy at 463.30 for a stake of, let’s say, £10 per point.
So, you gain £10 for every point that the Denmark 20 index moves higher than 463.30. Of course, it also means that you will make a loss of £10 for every point that the Denmark 20 market decreases lower than 463.30.
Looked at another way, if you were to 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 market at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.
Therefore, if, on the closing date, the Denmark 20 market settled higher at 472.60, then:
P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
P&L = (472.60 - 463.30) x £10 per point stake
P&L = 9.30 x £10 per point stake
P&L = £93.00 profit
Trading stock market indices, whether by spread betting or otherwise, doesn't always work out as you would have liked. In this case, you had bet that the index would rise. However, the index could go down.
If the Denmark 20 decreased, closing at 455.20, you would end up making a loss and losing money on this spread bet.
P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
P&L = (455.20 - 463.30) x £10 per point stake
P&L = -8.10 x £10 per point stake
P&L = -£81.00 loss
Note - Denmark 20 March Futures market correct as of 24-Feb-11.

If you want to access quick live market information then you could do worse than opening an account with a spread betting company like IG Index.
Also, you don't have to trade with them, if you just open an account (which is free to do) then their data is free. The catch? You'll get the odd email or letter from them. In the example below you can also see that their free charts are also useful.
