How to Spread Bet on Garmin? |
If you want to invest in US companies such as Garmin then one solution could be to spread bet on the Garmin share price.
Looking at a site like InterTrader, we can see that they are showing the Garmin Rolling Daily market at $37.70 - $37.75. This means an investor could spread bet on the Garmin share price:
 Rising above $37.75, or
 Falling below $37.70
Whilst spread trading on US shares you trade in £x per cent. Therefore, should you decide to risk £3 per cent and the Garmin share price moves $0.20 then that would make a difference to your profit/loss of £60. £3 per cent x $0.20 = £60.
You can also trade this market in Euros or Dollars, e.g. $x per cent.
Rolling Daily Equities Markets
Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. Should your trade be left open at the end of the trading day, it simply rolls over to the next session.
If a spread bet is rolled over and you are speculating on the market to:
Move up - then you are normally charged a small financing fee, or
Move down - then you'll usually receive a small credit to your account

Garmin Rolling Daily - US Equities Spread Betting Example |
Now, if we think about the spread of $37.70 - $37.75 and assume:
- You've done your market research, and
- Your analysis leads you to think that the Garmin shares will increase and move higher than $37.75
Then you could buy a spread bet at $37.75 and invest, for example, £4 per cent.
So, you gain £4 for every cent that the Garmin shares push above $37.75. Having said that, such a bet also means that you will lose £4 for every cent that the Garmin market decreases lower than $37.75.
Considering this from another angle, should you buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are calculated by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by the stake.
If after a few days the share price rose then you might want to close your spread bet in order to secure your profit.
So if the market increased then the spread, determined by the spread betting firm, could change to $38.13 - $38.18. In order to close your trade you would sell at $38.13. Therefore, with the same £4 stake:
Your P&L = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Your P&L = ($38.13 - $37.75) x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = $0.38 x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = 38¢ x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = £152 profit
Spread betting doesn't always go to plan. With this example, you had bet that the share price would increase. Naturally, it might decrease.
If the Garmin shares dropped then you could close your trade to limit your losses.
So if the market dropped to $37.41 - $37.46 then you would settle your spread bet by selling at $37.41. If so, this would result in a loss of:
Your P&L = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Your P&L = ($37.41 - $37.75) x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = -$0.34 x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = -34¢ x £4 per cent stake
Your P&L = -£136 loss
Note: Garmin Rolling Daily spread betting price correct as of 06-Feb-13.
