How to Spread Bet on Sports Direct? |
Should you decide to invest in companies such as SportsDirect then one solution could be to place a spread bet on the SportsDirect share price.
Looking at a spread betting website like Capitalspreads, we can see they are offering the SportsDirect Rolling Daily market at 368.8p - 370.6p. Therefore, you can put a spread bet on the SportsDirect shares:
 Moving higher than 370.6p, or
 Moving lower than 368.8p
Whilst making a spread bet on UK shares you trade in £x per penny. So, if you decided to risk £4 per penny and the SportsDirect shares move 20p then that would change your P&L by £80. £4 per penny x 20p = £80.
Rolling Daily Shares Markets
Note that this is a Rolling Daily Market and therefore there is no set settlement date for this market. If a trade is still open when the markets close at the end of the day, it just rolls over into the next session.
If your spread bet does roll over and you are speculating on the market to:
Go up - then you'll pay a small overnight financing fee, or
Go down - then a small payment is often credited to your account
For a more detailed example see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
SportsDirect Rolling Daily - Equities Spread Trading Example |
If you consider the spread of 368.8p - 370.6p and make the assumptions:
- You've completed your analysis of the stock markets, and
- Your analysis suggests the SportsDirect shares look like they will push above 370.6p
Then you may decide that you want to buy at 370.6p and risk £10 per penny.
This means that you make a profit of £10 for every penny that the SportsDirect shares increase and move higher than 370.6p. However, you will lose £10 for every penny that the SportsDirect market decreases below 370.6p.
Looked at another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your P&L is calculated by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
As a result, if after a few hours the stock rose then you might consider closing your position to secure your profit.
If that happened then the spread might change to 383.2p - 385.0p. You would close your spread bet by selling at 383.2p. Accordingly, with the same £10 stake your profit would come to:
Profit = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profit = (383.2p - 370.6p) x £10 per penny stake
Profit = 12.6p x £10 per penny stake
Profit = £126.00 profit
Trading equities, by spread trading or otherwise, doesn't always work out as you would have liked. In the above example, you had bet that the share price would go up. Of course, the share price might fall.
If the SportsDirect share price decreased, contrary to your expectations, then you could close your position in order to restrict your losses.
So if the market pulled back to 359.7p - 361.5p then you would settle your spread bet by selling at 359.7p. That would mean you would lose:
Loss = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
Loss = (359.7p - 370.6p) x £10 per penny stake
Loss = -10.9p x £10 per penny stake
Loss = -£109.00 loss
Note - SportsDirect Rolling Daily spread taken as of 14-Dec-12.
