How to Spread Bet on Home Depot

How to Spread Bet on Home Depot?


Should you want to speculate on US companies like Home Depot then one solution could be spread betting on the Home Depot share price.

Logging onto Capital Spreads, you can see that they are showing the Home Depot Rolling Daily market at $66.22 - $66.32. As a result, an investor could spread bet on the Home Depot shares:

  Home Depot Spread Betting Example Going higher than $66.32, or
  Home Depot Spread Trading Example Going lower than $66.22

When making a spread bet on S&P 500 shares you trade in £x per cent. As a result, if you invest £3 per cent and the Home Depot share price changes by $0.21 then that would alter your profits (or losses) by £63. £3 per cent x $0.21 = £63.

You can also trade this market in Dollars or Euros, e.g. €x per cent.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

It's important to note that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so there is no set settlement date for this market. If you leave your trade open at the end of the day, it just rolls over into the next day.

If a position is rolled over and you are speculating on the market to:

  Home Depot Spread Trading Example Increase - then you will normally be charged a small financing fee, or
  Home Depot Spread Trading Example Decrease - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account

To learn more about Rolling Daily Markets please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Home Depot Rolling Daily - US Shares Spread Trading Example


So, if you continue with the spread of $66.22 - $66.32 and assume:
  • You've done your analysis of the equities market, and
  • Your research suggests that the Home Depot share price is likely to increase and go higher than $66.32
Then you could decide to buy a spread bet at $66.32 for a stake of £3 per cent.

With such a spread bet you make a profit of £3 for every cent that the Home Depot shares go above $66.32. Having said that, you will lose £3 for every cent that the Home Depot market decreases below $66.32.

Put another way, if you buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is found by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.

If after a few sessions the share price started to increase then you might want to close your trade so that you can secure your profit. So if the market rose then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to $66.75 - $66.85. To close your position you would sell at $66.75. As a result, with the same £3 stake your profit would be calculated as:

Your P&L = (Final Price - Opening Price) x stake
Your P&L = ($66.75 - $66.32) x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = $0.43 x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = 43¢ x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = £129 profit

Trading shares, by spread trading or otherwise, doesn't always work out as you would have liked. In this case, you had bet that the share price would increase. However, the share price can also fall.

If the Home Depot stock dropped then you could close your spread bet in order to limit your losses.

Should the spread drop to $65.92 - $66.02 you would settle your spread bet by selling at $65.92. So your loss would be calculated as:

Your P&L = (Final Price - Opening Price) x stake
Your P&L = ($65.92 - $66.32) x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = -$0.40 x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = -40¢ x £3 per cent stake
Your P&L = -£120 loss

Note - Home Depot Rolling Daily spread betting market quoted as of 06-Feb-13.
