How to Spread Bet on Lonmin

How to Spread Bet on Lonmin?


If you decide to invest in UK listed companies such as Lonmin then one option could be to spread trade on the Lonmin share price.

Looking at a site like InterTrader, we can see they have put the Lonmin Rolling Daily market at 517.8p - 520.7p. As a result, you can spread bet on the Lonmin share price:

  Lonmin Trading Example Going higher than 520.7p, or
  Lonmin Spread Betting Example Going lower than 517.8p

When financial spread betting on FTSE 350 shares you trade in £x per penny. As a result, if you choose to have a stake of £3 per penny and the Lonmin share price moves 27p then that would alter your profits (or losses) by £81. £3 per penny x 27p = £81.

Rolling Daily Shares Markets

You should note that this is a 'Rolling Daily Market', therefore it does not have a settlement date. As a result, if your trade is still open at the end of the trading day, it will just roll over into the next day.

If you do let your position roll over into the next day and are spread betting on the market to:

  Lonmin Spread Betting Example Move up - then you usually pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  Lonmin Spread Betting Example Move down - then you will usually receive a small credit to your account

For a more detailed example see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Lonmin Rolling Daily - Shares Spread Betting Example


So, if you think about the above spread of 517.8p - 520.7p and assume:
  • You have analysed the equities market, and
  • Your analysis suggests that the Lonmin shares will rise higher than 520.7p
Then you could decide to go long of the market at 520.7p for a stake of £5 per penny.

With such a spread bet you win £5 for every penny that the Lonmin shares increase and go above 520.7p. On the other hand, such a bet also means you will lose £5 for every penny that the Lonmin market falls below 520.7p.

Looked at another way, should you buy a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.

As a result, if after a few trading sessions the stock rose then you might consider closing your position to secure your profit. As an example, should the market rise, the spread, set by the spread trading company, might change to 540.5p - 543.4p. In order to close your trade you would sell at 540.5p. So, with the same £5 stake you would calculate your profit as:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (540.5p - 520.7p) x £5 per penny stake
Profit / loss = 19.8p x £5 per penny stake
Profit / loss = £99.00 profit

Trading shares, whether by spread trading or otherwise, can work against you. In this case, you had bet that the share price would rise. Nevertheless, it can also fall.

If the Lonmin shares had fallen then you could close your trade in order to restrict your losses.

Should the spread drop to 497.3p - 500.2p then you would settle/close your trade by selling at 497.3p. If so, this would result in a loss of:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (497.3p - 520.7p) x £5 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -23.4p x £5 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -£117.00 loss

Note - Lonmin Rolling Daily market taken as of 31-Oct-12.
