How to Spread Bet on Cairn Energy? |
If you are looking to invest in UK companies such as Cairn Energy then one option could be to place a spread bet on the Cairn Energy share price.
Looking at a financial spread betting platform like FinancialSpreads, we can see they are showing the Cairn Energy Rolling Daily market at 280.1p - 281.1p. Therefore, an investor could put a spread bet on the Cairn Energy share price:
 Increasing higher than 281.1p, or
 Decreasing lower than 280.1p
Whilst making a spread bet on UK equities you trade in £x per penny. Therefore, should you choose to risk £5 per penny and the Cairn Energy share price moves 31p then that would alter your profit/loss by £155. £5 per penny x 31p = £155.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
An important aspect of this Rolling Daily Market is that there is no closing date for this market. If you leave your trade open at the end of the day, it simply rolls over to the next trading day.
If you allow your position to roll over and are spread betting on the market to:
Go up - then you will normally be charged a small financing fee, or
Go down - then you will normally receive a small credit to your account
You can learn more about Rolling Daily Markets in our article Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Cairn Energy Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Betting Example |
So, if we continue with the spread of 280.1p - 281.1p and assume:
- You've done your market research, and
- Your research suggests the Cairn Energy share price looks like it will increase and move higher than 281.1p
Then you could decide that you want to buy a spread bet at 281.1p for a stake of £15 per penny.
Therefore, you make a profit of £15 for every penny that the Cairn Energy shares go above 281.1p. On the other hand, it also means you will make a loss of £15 for every penny that the Cairn Energy market falls lower than 281.1p.
Put another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
With this in mind, if after a few sessions the share price rose then you might consider closing your trade in order to secure your profit.
So if the market rose then the spread might move to 289.5p - 290.5p. In order to close/settle your position you would sell at 289.5p. Therefore, with the same £15 stake this trade would make you a profit of:
Profit / loss = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (289.5p - 281.1p) x £15 per penny stake
Profit / loss = 8.4p x £15 per penny stake
Profit / loss = £126.00 profit
Trading shares, by spread betting or otherwise, doesn't always go to plan. In this case, you had bet that the share price would rise. However, the share price can also go down.
If the Cairn Energy stock decreased, contrary to your expectations, then you could choose to close your trade in order to limit your losses.
So if the market dropped to 273.8p - 274.8p then you would settle your position by selling at 273.8p. That would mean you would make a loss of:
Profit / loss = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (273.8p - 281.1p) x £15 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -7.3p x £15 per penny stake
Profit / loss = -£109.50 loss
Note: Cairn Energy Rolling Daily market correct as of 31-Oct-12.
