How to Spread Bet on the EU Stocks 50? |
As with a wide variety of financial markets, an investor can place a spread bet on stock market indices, such as the EU Stocks 50, to rise or fall.
Looking at a spread trading platform like InterTrader, we can see that they are currently pricing the EU Stocks 50 March Futures market at 2495 - 2498. Therefore, an investor could put a spread bet on the EU Stocks 50 market:
 Settling above 2498, or
 Settling below 2495
On the closing date for this 'March' market, 15-Mar-13.
Whilst spread betting on the EU Stocks 50 index you trade in £x per point. So, should you choose to risk £4 per point and the EU Stocks 50 moves 28 points then that would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £112. £4 per point x 28 points = £112.
For short term trading on a range of indices also see Indices Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
EU Stocks 50 Futures - Indices Spread Betting Example |
If you think about the above spread of 2495 - 2498 and make the assumptions:
- You have done your analysis of the stock market index, and
- You feel that the EU Stocks 50 index will close above 2498 by 15-Mar-13
Then you could decide that you want to buy at 2498 and invest, for example, £3 per point.
This means that you win £3 for every point that the EU Stocks 50 index moves higher than 2498. However, you will lose £3 for every point that the EU Stocks 50 market decreases lower than 2498.
Looked at another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your P&L is found by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the initial price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
With that in mind, if, on the expiry date, the EU Stocks 50 index settled at 2527, then:
Profit / loss = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (2527 - 2498) x £3 per point stake
Profit / loss = 29 x £3 per point stake
Profit / loss = £87 profit
Financial spread betting is not straightforward. With the above, you had bet that the index would go up. Of course, the index might decrease.
If the EU Stocks 50 had fallen and settled lower at 2464, then this means you would make a loss.
Profit / loss = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (2464 - 2498) x £3 per point stake
Profit / loss = -34 x £3 per point stake
Profit / loss = -£102 loss
Note: EU Stocks 50 March Futures spread betting market quoted as of 27-Sep-12.
