How to Spread Bet on French Shares - Sodexo Rolling Daily

If you are looking to speculate on European listed companies like Sodexo then one possibility could be to place a spread bet on the Sodexo share price.

If you were to look at the Capital Spreads spread betting site, they are showing the Sodexo Rolling Daily market at €51.95 - €52.09. As a result, you can spread trade on the Sodexo shares:
  • Going above €52.09, or
  • Going below €51.95
When spread betting on French equities you trade in £x per cent. So, if you chose to have a stake of £4 per cent and the Sodexo shares move €0.05 then that would make a difference to your bottom line of £20. £4 per cent x €0.05 = £20.

Note that you can also invest in this market in Euros or Dollars, e.g. €x per cent.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

One important thing to note is that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so unlike a normal spread betting futures market, there is no settlement date. If your position is still open at the end of the day, it just rolls over to the next trading session.

If your spread bet is rolled over and you are speculating that the market will:
  • Increase - then you normally pay a small overnight financing fee, or
  • Decrease - then a small payment will usually be credited to your account
For a more detailed example see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.

Sodexo Rolling Daily - French Shares Spread Trading Example

If you consider the above spread of €51.95 - €52.09 and assume that:
  • you have done your analysis of the markets, and
  • you think that the Sodexo shares look like they will rise higher than €52.09
then you may decide that you are going to buy a spread bet at €52.09 and risk, for the sake of argument, £2 per cent.

With such a bet you win £2 for every cent that the Sodexo shares increase and move above €52.09. However, it also means that you will lose £2 for every cent that the Sodexo market falls below €52.09.

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

If after a few sessions the stock rose then you might want to close your trade and therefore lock in your profits. So if the market increased then the spread, set by the spread trading company, might change to €52.82 - €52.96. You would close your trade by selling at €52.82. Therefore, with the same £2 stake:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (€52.82 - €52.09) x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = €0.73 x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = 73c x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = £146 profit

Trading shares is not simple. In the above example, you wanted the share price to rise. Of course, it can also decrease.

If the Sodexo shares began to drop then you might choose to close your spread bet to limit your losses.

If the spread fell to €51.44 - €51.58 you would close your spread bet by selling at €51.44. If so, that would mean you would lose:

Profit / loss = (Closing Price - Initial Price) x stake
Profit / loss = (€51.44 - €52.09) x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -€0.65 x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -65c x £2 per cent stake
Profit / loss = -£130 loss

Where can I Find Candlestick Charts for Sodexo?

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