How to Spread Bet on German Shares - SAP Rolling Daily


If you are going to invest in European listed companies such as SAP then one option could be to spread bet on the SAP share price.

Looking at the Capital Spreads spread trading site, they are currently showing the SAP Rolling Daily market at €37.16 - €37.26. As a result, you could spread bet on the SAP share price:
  • Rising higher than €37.26, or
  • Falling lower than €37.16
When financial spread betting on German shares you trade in £x per cent. So, if your stake was £4 per cent and the SAP share price changes by €0.05 then that would be a difference to your P&L of £20. £4 per cent x €0.05 = £20.

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

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

It is important to note that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. If you decide to leave your trade open at the end of the day, it will just roll over into the next day.

If your spread bet does roll over and you are speculating on the market to:
  • Go up - then you are usually charged a small overnight financing fee, or
  • Go down - then you will often receive a small payment to your account
For more information see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.

SAP Rolling Daily - German Equities Spread Betting Example

If you consider the above spread of €37.16 - €37.26 and assume that:
  • you have done your analysis, and
  • it leads you to think that the SAP share price is likely to go higher than €37.26
then you might decide that you want to buy a spread bet at €37.26 for a stake of £2 per cent.

With such a bet you win £2 for every cent that the SAP shares increase and go above €37.26. However, such a bet also means that you will lose £2 for every cent that the SAP market decreases lower than €37.26.

Put another way, should you buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are calculated by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that price difference by the stake.

Therefore, if after a few days the stock started to increase then you might think about closing your position in order to guarantee your profit. Therefore, if the market moved up then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to €37.80 - €37.90. You would settle your position by selling at €37.80. Accordingly, with the same £2 stake this trade would make you a profit of:

Your P&L = (Closing Value - Opening Value) x stake
Your P&L = (€37.80 - €37.26) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = €0.54 x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = 54c x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = £108 profit

Trading equities, whether by spread trading or otherwise, can go against you. In this example, you had bet that the share price would increase. Nevertheless, the share price can also fall.

If the SAP shares began to fall then you might decide to settle/close your trade in order to restrict your losses.

Should the market drop to €36.76 - €36.86 then you would close your trade by selling at €36.76. Accordingly, your loss would be:

Your P&L = (Closing Value - Opening Value) x stake
Your P&L = (€36.76 - €37.26) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = -€0.50 x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = -50c x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = -£100 loss

Note: SAP Rolling Daily spread accurate as of 01-Nov-10.


Where can I Find Live Prices on SAP?


If you want to access live spread betting markets, including German shares, then you generally need to open an account with a spread betting company. Note that accounts are subject to status.

The spread betting firms listed on this page do not charge fees for account applications.

If your application is approved then you can log on to their website and access their Live Prices and charts. There is no charge for looking at their prices.

The catch? You'll get the odd email or letter from them. The companies below also offer clients access to candlestick charts.

Of course, if you do trade then you should note that spread trading carries a high level of risk to your capital and you could lose more than your initial investment.

Live prices are available for account holders at:


Where can I Find Candlestick Charts for SAP?

Like live prices, if you want to access candlestick charts for German shares then you generally need to open an account with a spread betting company that offers German shares. Note that accounts are subject to status.

If your application is approved then you can log on to their website and access their candlestick charts.

You can usually alter the charts to see market data by the tick, by the minute, by the hour, by the week etc. There are also other options that allow you to easily add analysis such as Moving Averages and Bollinger Bands.

As you can see the charts show how German share prices, as with most financial spread betting markets, are not perfect and how you can expect the prices to "gap".
