How to Spread Bet on DR Horton

How to Spread Bet on DR Horton?


If an investor wants to invest in firms like DR Horton then one solution is a spread bet on the DR Horton share price.

Looking at a spread trading website like Capital Spreads, you can see they are currently valuing the DR Horton Rolling Daily market at $23.58 - $23.63. Therefore, you can spread bet on the DR Horton shares:

  DR Horton Spread Betting Example Rising above $23.63, or
  DR Horton Trading Example Falling below $23.58

When spread trading on US shares you trade in £x per cent. Therefore, if you chose to have a stake of £2 per cent and the DR Horton share price changes by $0.30 then that would alter your bottom line by £60. £2 per cent x $0.30 = £60.

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

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

You should note that this is a 'Rolling Daily Market', therefore it does not have a closing date. If you leave your trade open at the end of the day, it will just roll over into the next trading session.

If you do let your trade roll over into the next day and are spread betting on the market to:

  DR Horton Trading Example Increase - then you will often be charged a small financing fee, or
  DR Horton Trading Example Decrease - then you will normally receive a small credit to your account

You can learn more about Rolling Daily Markets in our article Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


DR Horton Rolling Daily - US Shares Trading Example


If we take the spread of $23.58 - $23.63 and make the assumptions:
  • You've done your analysis, and
  • Your analysis leads you to feel the DR Horton share price will increase and move above $23.63
Then you could choose to go long of the market at $23.63 for a stake of £5 per cent.

Therefore, you make a profit of £5 for every cent that the DR Horton shares go higher than $23.63. Nevertheless, it also means that you will lose £5 for every cent that the DR Horton market moves lower than $23.63.

Put another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your P&L is found by taking the difference between the settlement 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 sessions the stock started to rise you might decide to close your trade so that you can lock in your profit. Taking this a step further, if the market did go up then the spread, set by the spread betting company, could change to $23.91 - $23.96. In order to close your position you would sell at $23.91. As a result, with the same £5 stake your profit would be:

Profit = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profit = ($23.91 - $23.63) x £5 per cent stake
Profit = $0.28 x £5 per cent stake
Profit = 28¢ x £5 per cent stake
Profit = £140 profit

Trading shares, by spread trading or otherwise, may not go to plan. In this case, you wanted the share price to rise. Naturally, it could decrease.

If the DR Horton share price had started to fall then you might choose to close your spread bet in order to limit your losses.

So if the market fell to $23.39 - $23.44 then you would settle your trade by selling at $23.39. That would mean you would lose:

Loss = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Loss = ($23.39 - $23.63) x £5 per cent stake
Loss = -$0.24 x £5 per cent stake
Loss = -24¢ x £5 per cent stake
Loss = -£120 loss

Note: DR Horton Rolling Daily spread taken as of 06-Feb-13.
