How to Spread Bet on EnQuest

How to Spread Bet on EnQuest?


If an investor is looking to speculate on UK listed companies like EnQuest then one possibility could be to spread trade on the EnQuest share price.

Looking at a website like capital spreads, you can see they are valuing the EnQuest Rolling Daily market at 116.5p - 117.1p. This means an investor can spread bet on the EnQuest shares:

  EnQuest Spread Betting Example Increasing above 117.1p, or
  EnQuest Spread Trading Example Decreasing below 116.5p

Whilst financial spread trading on UK shares you trade in £x per penny. As a result, should you choose to risk £4 per penny and the EnQuest share price moves 40p then that would make a difference to your P&L of £160. £4 per penny x 40p = £160.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that unlike a normal spread betting futures market, there is no settlement date. If a trade is still open when the markets close at the end of the day, it just rolls over into the next session.

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

  EnQuest Spread Trading Example Go higher - then you'll be charged a small overnight financing fee, or
  EnQuest Spread Trading Example Go lower - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account

To find out more about Rolling Daily Markets read our feature Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


EnQuest Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Trading Example


So, if you take the above spread of 116.5p - 117.1p and make the assumptions:
  • You have analysed the shares, and
  • You think the EnQuest share price will push higher than 117.1p
Then you might decide that you want to buy at 117.1p and invest, for the sake of argument, £20 per penny.

With such a spread bet you make a profit of £20 for every penny that the EnQuest shares move above 117.1p. Of course, it also means that you will make a loss of £20 for every penny that the EnQuest market goes lower than 117.1p.

Considering this from another angle, should you ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your P&L is worked out by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.

With this in mind, if after a few trading sessions the stock started to move upwards then you could choose to close your trade to lock in your profit. Therefore, if the market moved up then the spread, set by the spread trading company, might change to 123.0p - 123.6p. You would settle your position by selling at 123.0p. So, with the same £20 stake you would calculate your profit as:

Profits (or losses) = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (123.0p - 117.1p) x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = 5.9p x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = £118.00 profit

Speculating on shares, whether by spread trading or otherwise, can go against you. With this example, you had bet that the share price would go up. Naturally, it might decrease.

If the EnQuest shares decreased, contrary to your expectations, then you might decide to close/settle your trade in order to restrict your losses.

If the market dropped to 112.1p - 112.7p then this means you would settle your position by selling at 112.1p. That would mean you would make a loss of:

Profits (or losses) = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (112.1p - 117.1p) x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = -5.0p x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = -£100.00 loss

Note - EnQuest Rolling Daily spread taken as of 31-Oct-12.
