How to Spread Bet on the Dow Jones?
As with many markets, you can spread bet on the future price of Indices, like the Dow Jones (Wall St), increasing or decreasing.
As mentioned above, in spread betting rather than being called the Dow or Dow Jones or Dow 30 the Dow 30 Index market is called 'Wall Street'.
The current price of the Wall Street (December) market is 13975 - 13981 with FinancialSpreads.com. This market expires on 21-Dec-07.
Therefore you can spread bet on Wall Street settling:
- Above 13981, or
- Below 13975
By the expiry date of 21-Dec-07.
It should be noted that the Wall Street price, you trade in £X per point, where a point is 1 point of Dow Jones movement. eg if your stake was £8 per point and the Dow Jones moves 4 points then that would be a £32 difference to your profits.
Dow Jones Financial Spread Trading Example
So looking at an example, let's say taking the above spread of 13975 – 13981. Let's also say that you have done your research and think that the Dow Jones will finish above 13981 by 21-Dec-07.
Therefore you buy at 13981 for a stake of £4 per point.
If by the expiry date the Dow settles at 13998.
Then your P&L is worked out by taking the difference between the settlement value, ie 13998 and the price you bought the market at, ie 13981 and then multiplying that by the stake per point.
Profits = (13998 - 13981) x £4 per point stake.
= 7 points x £4 per point stake.
= £68 profit.
Nevertheless if the market didn't move as predicted and had the Dow Jones gone against your trade and the market closed at a lower than expected level of 13965, then you would have lost on this trade.
Loss = (13965 - 13981) x £4 per point stake.
= -16 points x £4 per point stake.
= -£64 loss.
Note: DJIA spread betting example prices quoted: 01-Nov-07.
Where can I Find Free Live Prices on the Dow Jones?
If you want to access quick live market information then you could do worse than opening an account with a firm like Financial Spreads.
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.
There are also live prices available at:
Where can I Find Free Dow Jones Charts?
As mentioned above, you can get free charts with spread betting companies like Financial Spreads.
You can alter the charts to see market data by the minute, by the hour, by the week etc, plus many other settings to help you analyse the charts.
As you can see the charts show how the market's are not perfect and how you can expect the prices to "gap".
FinancialSpreads.com also have another pretty handy tool in their free Demo account (mentioned above). You can open a Demo account and place demo trades whilst you practice with no risk or cost attached.
