How to Spread Bet on Kier

How to Spread Bet on Kier?


If you are going to speculate on companies such as Kier then one possibility could be to place a spread bet on the Kier share price.

Looking at a site like Inter Trader, you can see they are currently showing the Kier Rolling Daily market at 1289.3p - 1294.7p. As a result, an investor can spread trade on the Kier share price:

  Kier Spread Trading Example Rising above 1294.7p, or
  Kier Spread Betting Example Falling below 1289.3p

Whilst making a spread bet on FTSE 350 equities you trade in £x per penny. So, should you choose to risk £3 per penny and the Kier share price moves 32p then that would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £96. £3 per penny x 32p = £96.

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

You should note that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no closing date for this market. Therefore, if you decide not to close your trade by the end of the day, it simply rolls over to the next trading day.

Should your bet roll over, if you are speculating that the market will:

  Kier Spread Betting Example Move higher - then you normally pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Kier Spread Betting Example Move lower - then you'll normally receive a small credit to your account

To see a fully worked example read Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Kier Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Betting Example


Now, if you continue with the above spread of 1289.3p - 1294.7p and assume that:
  • You've done your research into the company, and
  • Your research leads you to think the Kier shares will increase and move higher than 1294.7p
Then you might decide that you want to go long of the market at 1294.7p for a stake of £3 per penny.

This means that you win £3 for every penny that the Kier shares push above 1294.7p. However, such a bet also means that you will lose £3 for every penny that the Kier market goes lower than 1294.7p.

Looked at another way, if you were to ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your P&L is worked out by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.

Therefore, if after a few days the stock moved higher then you might want to close your spread bet so that you can secure your profit. So if the market moved up then the spread, set by the spread betting company, might move up to 1353.0p - 1358.4p. To settle/close your trade you would sell at 1353.0p. So, with the same £3 stake this trade would make you a profit of:

Your profits (or losses) = (Settlement Price - Initial Price) x stake
Your profits (or losses) = (1353.0p - 1294.7p) x £3 per penny stake
Your profits (or losses) = 58.3p x £3 per penny stake
Your profits (or losses) = £174.90 profit

Speculating on equities, whether by spread betting or otherwise, doesn't always go to plan. In the above example, you had bet that the share price would rise. However, the share price can also go down.

If the Kier share price had started to fall then you could choose to close your trade to limit your losses.

If the market dropped to 1241.0p - 1246.4p you would close your spread bet by selling at 1241.0p. If so, that would mean you would lose:

Your profits (or losses) = (Settlement Price - Initial Price) x stake
Your profits (or losses) = (1241.0p - 1294.7p) x £3 per penny stake
Your profits (or losses) = -53.7p x £3 per penny stake
Your profits (or losses) = -£161.10 loss

Note: Kier Rolling Daily equities market taken as of 31-Oct-12.
