How to Spread Bet on TalkTalk

How to Spread Bet on TalkTalk?


If you want to invest in companies such as TalkTalk then one possibility could be to place a spread bet on the TalkTalk share price.

Looking at a financial spread betting site like Selftrade Markets, we can see they are currently valuing the TalkTalk Rolling Daily market at 189.9p - 190.9p. Therefore, an investor could spread trade on the TalkTalk shares:

  TalkTalk Trading Example Increasing above 190.9p, or
  TalkTalk Spread Betting Example Decreasing below 189.9p

When financial spread trading on FTSE 350 shares you trade in £x per penny. So, should you choose to invest £3 per penny and the TalkTalk shares move 36p then that would be a difference to your bottom line of £108. £3 per penny x 36p = £108.

Rolling Daily Equities Markets

Be aware that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that unlike a normal futures market, there is no closing date. If you decide to leave your trade open at the end of the day, it will simply roll over to the next trading day.

If your bet is rolled over and you are speculating that the market will:

  TalkTalk Spread Betting Example Move higher - then you will often be charged a small financing fee, or
  TalkTalk Spread Betting Example Move lower - then a small payment is usually credited to your account

If you would like a fully worked example then see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.


TalkTalk Rolling Daily - Shares Spread Betting Example


Now, if we take the above spread of 189.9p - 190.9p and assume that:
  • You have done your analysis of the shares, and
  • Your analysis leads you to think that the TalkTalk share price will move higher than 190.9p
Then you might decide to buy at 190.9p for a stake of, for example, £20 per penny.

With such a bet you make a profit of £20 for every penny that the TalkTalk shares go above 190.9p. Nevertheless, such a bet also means that you will lose £20 for every penny that the TalkTalk market falls lower than 190.9p.

Thinking of this in a slightly different way, if you buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is worked out by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.

Therefore, if after a few sessions the share price started to increase then you might think about closing your spread bet so that you can lock in your profit. As an example, if the market increased then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, might change to 196.2p - 197.2p. You would close/settle your spread bet by selling at 196.2p. So, with the same £20 stake this trade would make you a profit of:

Your profit / loss = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Your profit / loss = (196.2p - 190.9p) x £20 per penny stake
Your profit / loss = 5.3p x £20 per penny stake
Your profit / loss = £106.00 profit

Spread betting on shares may not go to plan. With this example, you had bet that the share price would go up. Naturally, it can also fall.

If the TalkTalk shares had started to fall then you could choose to close your position in order to restrict your losses.

Should the spread fall back to 186.3p - 187.3p then you would close your trade by selling at 186.3p. So your loss would be calculated as:

Your profit / loss = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Your profit / loss = (186.3p - 190.9p) x £20 per penny stake
Your profit / loss = -4.6p x £20 per penny stake
Your profit / loss = -£92.00 loss
