How to Spread Bet on Go-Ahead Group? |
Should an investor decide to invest in UK companies like Go Ahead then one solution is a spread bet on the Go Ahead share price.
Looking at a financial spread betting platform like InterTrader, you can see that they are pricing the Go Ahead Rolling Daily market at 1297.3p - 1302.7p. Therefore, an investor can spread bet on the Go Ahead shares:
 Rising above 1302.7p, or
 Falling below 1297.3p
When making a spread bet on FTSE 350 equities you trade in £x per penny. Therefore, if you choose to risk £2 per penny and the Go Ahead shares move 39p then that would make a difference to your P&L of £78. £2 per penny x 39p = £78.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so there is no preset settlement date for this market. You do not have to close your position, should it still be open at the end of the trading day, it will roll over to the next trading day.
Should your position roll over, if you are speculating that the market will:
Move higher - then you'll normally be charged a small financing fee, or
Move lower - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account
For more information on Rolling Daily Markets, and a fully worked example, please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Go Ahead Rolling Daily - Shares Spread Betting Example |
Now, if you think about the spread of 1297.3p - 1302.7p and assume that:
- You've analysed the company, and
- Your research suggests the Go Ahead share price is likely to increase and move above 1302.7p
Then you might decide to buy a spread bet at 1302.7p for a stake of £2 per penny.
So, you make a profit of £2 for every penny that the Go Ahead shares go higher than 1302.7p. Of course, you will lose £2 for every penny that the Go Ahead market falls below 1302.7p.
Put another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is found by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.
With this in mind, if after a few trading sessions the stock moved higher then you might want to close your trade so that you can guarantee your profit.
So if the market increased then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, might change to 1348.3p - 1353.7p. You would close your trade by selling at 1348.3p. As a result, with the same £2 stake you would make a profit of:
P&L = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
P&L = (1348.3p - 1302.7p) x £2 per penny stake
P&L = 45.6p x £2 per penny stake
P&L = £91.20 profit
Speculating on equities, by spread betting or otherwise, may not go to plan. With this example, you had bet that the share price would increase. Nevertheless, the share price could decrease.
If the Go Ahead share price had fallen then you could close your position in order to limit your losses.
Should the market pull back to 1250.6p - 1256.0p then this means you would settle/close your trade by selling at 1250.6p. As a result, your loss would be:
P&L = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
P&L = (1250.6p - 1302.7p) x £2 per penny stake
P&L = -52.1p x £2 per penny stake
P&L = -£104.20 loss
Note: Go Ahead Rolling Daily spread quoted as of 31-Oct-12.
