How to Spread Bet on Dexion Absolute

How to Spread Bet on Dexion Absolute?


If you are going to speculate on firms such as Dexion Absolute then one option could be spread trading on the Dexion share price.

Looking at a spread trading site like FinancialSpreads.com, you can see that they are pricing the Dexion Rolling Daily market at 137.5p - 138.3p. Therefore, an investor can spread trade on the Dexion shares:

  Dexion Trading Example Going higher than 138.3p, or
  Dexion Spread Trading Example Going lower than 137.5p

When making a spread bet on FTSE 350 equities you trade in £x per penny. So, should you choose to invest £2 per penny and the Dexion shares move 32p then that would make a difference to your bottom line of £64. £2 per penny x 32p = £64.

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no settlement date for this market. If you leave your trade open at the end of the day, it will simply roll over to the next trading day.

If you allow your position to roll over and are spread betting on the market to:

  Dexion Spread Trading Example Move up - then you will pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Dexion Spread Trading Example Move down - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account

For more information see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.

So, if we consider the spread of 137.5p - 138.3p and make the assumptions:
  • You've done your analysis, and
  • Your analysis leads you to think the Dexion shares are likely to move above 138.3p
Then you could decide to go long of the market at 138.3p and risk, let’s say, £20 per penny.

With such a spread bet you make a profit of £20 for every penny that the Dexion shares go higher than 138.3p. On the other hand, such a bet also means you will make a loss of £20 for every penny that the Dexion market goes below 138.3p.

Looking at this from another angle, should you buy a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the initial price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.

With this in mind, if after a few days the shares rose then you might consider closing your trade so that you can lock in your profit. Taking this a step further, if the market rose then the spread might move to 143.8p - 144.6p. To close your trade you would sell at 143.8p. As a result, with the same £20 stake your profit would be calculated as:

Your P&L = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Your P&L = (143.8p - 138.3p) x £20 per penny stake
Your P&L = 5.5p x £20 per penny stake
Your P&L = £110.00 profit

Trading equities, whether by spread trading or otherwise, is not always easy. In the above example, you wanted the share price to increase. Of course, it might go down.

If the Dexion share price had fallen then you might decide to close/settle your position in order to limit your losses.

So if the spread fell to 133.5p - 134.3p you would settle your trade by selling at 133.5p. As a result, your loss would be:

Your P&L = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Your P&L = (133.5p - 138.3p) x £20 per penny stake
Your P&L = -4.8p x £20 per penny stake
Your P&L = -£96.00 loss

Note - Dexion Absolute Rolling Daily spread betting price correct as of 31-Oct-12.
