How to Spread Bet on Rank? |
Should you want to speculate on firms like Rank then one possibility is to spread trade on the Rank share price.
Looking at a spread betting site like SelftradeMarkets, you can see that they have put the Rank Rolling Daily market at 146.6p - 147.2p. This means you can put a spread bet on the Rank shares:
 Increasing higher than 147.2p, or
 Decreasing lower than 146.6p
When financial spread trading on UK shares you trade in £x per penny. Therefore, should you decide to risk £4 per penny and the Rank shares move 21p then that would make a difference to your bottom line of £84. £4 per penny x 21p = £84.
Rolling Daily Equities Markets
You should note that this is a Rolling Daily Market which means that it does not have a set closing date. You do not have to close your position, should it still be open at the end of the trading day, it will stay open and roll over into the next day.
Should your spread bet roll over, if you are speculating that the market will:
Go up - then you'll usually be charged a small overnight financing fee, or
Go down - then you'll usually receive a small credit to your account

Rank Rolling Daily - Shares Trading Example |
So, if you consider the above spread of 146.6p - 147.2p and make the assumptions:
- You've completed your analysis of the company, and
- Your research leads you to think that the Rank shares are likely to go above 147.2p
Then you may choose to go long of the market at 147.2p and invest, let’s say, £20 per penny.
So, you win £20 for every penny that the Rank shares increase and move higher than 147.2p. Having said that, such a bet also means that you will lose £20 for every penny that the Rank market falls below 147.2p.
Put another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are calculated by taking the difference between the settlement price of the market and the price you bought the spread at. You then multiply that difference in price by the stake.
As a result, if after a few sessions the stock started to rise you might decide to close your trade so that you can secure your profit.
If that happened then the spread, set by the spread trading firm, might move up to 153.8p - 154.4p. You would settle your position by selling at 153.8p. Therefore, with the same £20 stake you would make:
Profits (or losses) = (Closing Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (153.8p - 147.2p) x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = 6.6p x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = £132.00 profit
Trading shares may not go to plan. In this case, you wanted the share price to go up. Of course, the share price can also fall.
If the Rank shares decreased, contrary to your expectations, then you might choose to close your trade to stop any further losses.
If the market fell to 141.5p - 142.1p then you would close your position by selling at 141.5p. If so, that would mean you would lose:
Profits (or losses) = (Closing Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (141.5p - 147.2p) x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = -5.7p x £20 per penny stake
Profits (or losses) = -£114.00 loss
Note - Rank Rolling Daily market taken as of 31-Oct-12.
