How to Spread Bet on Man Group

How to Spread Bet on Man Group?


If you decide to speculate on companies such as Man Group then one option could be to place a spread bet on the Man Group share price.

Looking at a spread trading website like Selftrade Markets, we can see they are valuing the Man Group Rolling Daily market at 79.1p - 79.4p. As a result, an investor can spread trade on the Man Group shares:

  Man Group Spread Trading Example Moving higher than 79.4p, or
  Man Group Spread Betting Example Moving lower than 79.1p

When spread trading on FTSE 350 equities you trade in £x per penny. As a result, should you decide to risk £3 per penny and the Man Group shares move 22p then that would make a difference to your bottom line of £66. £3 per penny x 22p = £66.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

One thing to note is that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no set settlement date for this market. Therefore, if you decide not to close your trade by the end of the day, it simply keeps rolling over into the next trading session.

If you do roll over a trade and you are spread betting that the market will:

  Man Group Spread Betting Example Move higher - then you will be charged a small overnight financing fee, or
  Man Group Spread Betting Example Move lower - then you'll usually receive a small credit to your account

You can learn more in our feature Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


Man Group Rolling Daily - Shares Spread Betting Example


So, if you take the spread of 79.1p - 79.4p and make the assumptions that:
  • You've analysed the stock market, and
  • Your analysis suggests the Man Group shares will push above 79.4p
Then you may choose to go long of the market at 79.4p and risk, for example, £25 per penny.

With such a spread bet you make a profit of £25 for every penny that the Man Group shares go higher than 79.4p. On the other hand, you will lose £25 for every penny that the Man Group market goes lower than 79.4p.

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

With this in mind, if after a few sessions the shares started to rise you might decide to close your trade so that you can secure your profit. Taking this a step further, if the market did go up then the spread, set by the spread betting company, might move up to 83.4p - 83.7p. To settle/close your trade you would sell at 83.4p. As a result, with the same £25 stake you would make a profit of:

Your P&L = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Your P&L = (83.4p - 79.4p) x £25 per penny stake
Your P&L = 4.0p x £25 per penny stake
Your P&L = £100.00 profit

Speculating on shares, by spread trading or otherwise, is not always easy. In the above example, you had bet that the share price would rise. Of course, it could fall.

If the Man Group share price weakened, against your expectations, then you could choose to close your position to limit your losses.

So if the spread pulled back to 74.6p - 74.9p you would close your position by selling at 74.6p. If so, your loss would be calculated as:

Your P&L = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Your P&L = (74.6p - 79.4p) x £25 per penny stake
Your P&L = -4.8p x £25 per penny stake
Your P&L = -£120.00 loss
