How to Spread Bet on Equities - Game Group Shares?


As it stands, the Game Group (December) market is 154.8p - 155.9p with CapitalSpreads. This market expires on 15-Dec-09.

Like many financial markets, you can spread bet on the future price of shares, like Game Group shares, going up or down.

With the above spread bet you can speculate on Game Group shares settling:
  1. Above 155.9p on 15-Dec-09, or
  2. Below 154.8p on 15-Dec-09.
When financial spread betting on UK shares you trade in £x per penny, where a penny is 1p of Game Group share price movement.

For example, if your stake was £10 per penny and the Game Group shares move 9p then that would be a £90 difference to your bottom line.

Trading Example for Game Group Shares


So looking at an example, let's take the above spread of 154.8p - 155.9p. Let’s also assume you have done your research and that you think that the Game Group share looks like they will rise to close higher than 155.9p on 15-Dec-09.

Therefore, you buy at 155.9p for a stake of, let's say, £5 per penny.

If you 'Buy' a spreadbet your profit/loss is worked out by taking the difference between the closing level and the opening level of the spread bet, and then multiplying that difference by the stake.

Now consider that by the closing date the stock settles at 175p, if so:

Profits = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake.

Profits = (175.0p - 155.9p) x £5 per penny stake.

Profits = 19.1p x £5 per penny stake.

Profits = £95.50 profit.

Financial spread trading on shares is not always straightforward. If the market did not conform to your prediction and had the Game Group stock gone against your trade, with the market closing lower at 140p, you would have made a loss on this spread bet.

Profits = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake.

Profits = (140.0p - 155.9p) x £5 per penny stake.

Profits = -15.9p x £5 per penny stake.

Profits = -£79.50 loss.
