How to Spread Bet on the Spain 35? |
As with a wide variety of global financial markets, an investor can spread bet on stock market indices, like the Spain 35, to either rise or fall.
Looking at a financial spread betting platform like Financial Spreads, you can see that they are showing the Spain 35 Rolling Daily market at 7628.5 - 7632.5. Therefore, an investor can spread trade on the Spain 35 index:
 Increasing above 7632.5, or
 Decreasing below 7628.5
When making a spread bet on the Spain 35 index you trade in £x per point. As a result, should you decide to invest £3 per point and the Spain 35 moves 32 points then there would be a difference to your P&L of £96. £3 per point x 32 points = £96.
Rolling Daily Index Markets
Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so there is no set closing date for this market. If your position is still open at the end of the day, it just rolls over into the next session.
If you do roll over a position and you are spread betting that the market will:
Go higher - then you are normally charged a small financing fee, or
Go lower - then you will usually receive a small credit to your account
You can find more on Rolling Daily Markets, as well as a fully worked example, in our feature Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Spain 35 Rolling Daily - Indices Spread Trading Example |
Now, if you consider the spread of 7628.5 - 7632.5 and make the assumptions:
- You have analysed the markets, and
- You think that the Spain 35 index will push above 7632.5
Then you could buy at 7632.5 for a stake of, for example, £3 per point.
With such a spread bet you win £3 for every point that the Spain 35 index moves higher than 7632.5. Of course, such a bet also means that you will make a loss of £3 for every point that the Spain 35 market decreases lower than 7632.5.
Thinking of this in a slightly different way, if you were to ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are worked out 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.
As a result, if after a few sessions the market started to rise you might decide to close your trade so that you can guarantee your profit.
So if the Spanish stock market increased then the spread might move to 7672.6 - 7676.6. You would settle/close your trade by selling at 7672.6. Accordingly, with the same £3 stake your profit would be calculated as:
Profit = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profit = (7672.6 - 7632.5) x £3 per point stake
Profit = 40.1 x £3 per point stake
Profit = £120.30 profit
Trading indices, by spread betting or otherwise, is not always straightforward. In this case, you had bet that the Spanish stock market index would rise. However, the index can also decrease.
If the Spain 35 market had fallen then you could choose to close your position to stop any further losses.
Should the spread pull back to 7598.2 - 7602.2 then you would close your position by selling at 7598.2. If so, that would mean you would lose:
Loss = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Loss = (7598.2 - 7632.5) x £3 per point stake
Loss = -34.3 x £3 per point stake
Loss = -£102.90 loss
