How to Spread Bet on Admiral? |
If you decide to invest in UK listed companies such as Admiral then one solution could be spread betting on the Admiral share price.
Logging into SelftradeMarkets, you can see that they are currently pricing the Admiral Rolling Daily market at 1150.4p - 1153.6p. This means an investor could put a spread bet on the Admiral shares:
 Going above 1153.6p, or
 Going below 1150.4p
When spread betting on FTSE 350 shares you trade in £x per penny. As a result, if you chose to invest £4 per penny and the Admiral shares move 39p then that would alter your P&L by £156. £4 per penny x 39p = £156.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
One important thing to note is that this is a 'Rolling Daily Market' and therefore unlike a normal spread betting futures market, there is no settlement date. If your trade is still open at the end of the trading day, it will simply roll over to the next trading day.
If a bet is rolled over and you are spread betting on the market to:
Go higher - then you would normally pay a small financing fee, or
Go lower - then a small payment is usually credited to your account
For more information on Rolling Daily Markets, and a fully worked example, please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Admiral Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Betting Example |
So, if you continue with the above spread of 1150.4p - 1153.6p and make the assumptions:
- You've completed your analysis of the stock market, and
- Your analysis leads you to feel that the Admiral share price will increase and move higher than 1153.6p
Then you might decide that you are going to buy a spread bet at 1153.6p and invest, let’s say, £3 per penny.
With such a spread bet you make a profit of £3 for every penny that the Admiral shares increase and go above 1153.6p. Having said that, you will lose £3 for every penny that the Admiral market goes lower than 1153.6p.
Looked at another way, if you ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the initial price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that price difference by your stake.
Therefore, if after a few hours the stock started to increase then you might want to close your position and therefore guarantee your profits.
Taking this a step further, if the market rose then the spread could change to 1194.0p - 1197.2p. In order to close/settle your position you would sell at 1194.0p. As a result, with the same £3 stake your profit would be calculated as:
P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
P&L = (1194.0p - 1153.6p) x £3 per penny stake
P&L = 40.4p x £3 per penny stake
P&L = £121.20 profit
Spread betting on shares is not easy. In this example, you had bet that the share price would rise. Naturally, the share price might fall.
If the Admiral shares had started to fall then you might choose to close your spread bet in order to restrict your losses.
Should the spread fall back to 1119.0p - 1122.2p you would sell back your position at 1119.0p. So your loss would be calculated as:
P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
P&L = (1119.0p - 1153.6p) x £3 per penny stake
P&L = -34.6p x £3 per penny stake
P&L = -£103.80 loss
Note: Admiral Rolling Daily spread betting market quoted as of 19-Oct-12.
