4) How do you Spread Bet on the Bristol-Myers Squibb Market to Go Up?
Bristol-Myers Squibb Trading Example
If you are going to spread trade on US shares like Bristol-Myers Squibb then, looking at a spread betting website, at the time of writing you would find a spread betting price of $24.29 - $24.34.
As a result, you can bet on Bristol-Myers Squibb shares to move higher than $24.34 or to move lower than $24.29.
When spread betting, you bet on every unit the market rises or falls; specifically, for the Bristol-Myers Squibb market a unit is $0.01 of the share's price movement.
With this example, you could choose to trade £2 for every cent that the Bristol-Myers Squibb share price rises or falls.
Buying - Spread Betting on the Market to Increase
If you were to buy Bristol-Myers Squibb at $24.34 and the shares went up then the spread could become $24.74 - $24.79. In that case, you could decide to take your profits by closing your spread trade at $24.74.
Profits (or Losses) = (closing price of the market - initial price of the market) x stake per cent
Profits (or Losses) = ($24.74 - $24.34) x £2 per cent stake
Profits (or Losses) = $0.40 x £2 per cent
Profits (or Losses) = £80 profit
Nevertheless, if the market decreased to, as an example, $23.96 - $24.01, you may decide to close your trade to prevent further losses. If this were the case, you would sell your spread bet at $23.96.
You would close your bet with the same £2 per cent stake:
Profits (or Losses) = (closing price of the market - initial price of the market) x stake per cent
Profits (or Losses) = ($23.96 - $24.34) x £2 per cent stake
Profits (or Losses) = -$0.38 x £2 per cent
Profits (or Losses) = -£76 loss
5) How do you Spread Bet on the Bristol-Myers Squibb Market to Go Down?
One of the advantages of placing a spread bet is that investors can go short of the markets.
The original market was priced at $24.29 - $24.34.
If you were to sell Bristol-Myers Squibb at $24.29 and the shares went down then the spread might become $23.80 - $23.85. Assuming this was the case, you might decide to take your profits by closing your spread bet at $23.85.
Profits (or Losses) = (initial price of the market - closing price of the market) x stake per cent
Profits (or Losses) = ($24.29 - $23.85) x £2 per cent stake
Profits (or Losses) = $0.44 x £2 per cent
Profits (or Losses) = £88 profit
The markets can of course rise, if the market increased to, as an example, $24.65 - $24.70, you could choose to close your spread bet to prevent further losses. Therefore, you would buy the market at $24.70.
So, with the same £2 per cent stake:
Profits (or Losses) = (initial price of the market - closing price of the market) x stake per cent
Profits (or Losses) = ($24.29 - $24.70) x £2 per cent stake
Profits (or Losses) = -$0.41 x £2 per cent
Profits (or Losses) = -£82 loss
