4) How do you Spread Bet on the Cadburys Market to Go Up?
Cadburys Spread Trading Example
If you decide to spread bet on UK shares like Cadburys then, looking at a spread betting website like Capital Spreads, you would currently find a spread of 834.0p - 835.5p.
That means you can spread trade on Cadburys shares to go higher than 835.5p or to go lower than 834.0p.
With spread trading, investors bet on every unit the market rises or falls. For the Cadburys market a unit is 1p of the share's price movement.
For this example, you might decide to trade £5 for every penny that the Cadburys share price rises or falls.
Spread Betting on the Market to Rise
If you were to go long of Cadburys at 835.5p and the shares increased then you might see the spread move to 856.4p - 857.9p. If that were to happen, you might want to close your bet for a profit by selling at 856.4p.
Your P&L = (final price of the market - opening value of the market) x stake per penny
Your P&L = (856.4p - 835.5p) x £5 per penny stake
Your P&L = 20.9p x £5 per penny
Your P&L = £104.50 profit
Markets can also fall, if the market were to drop to 816.7p - 818.2p, you may want to close your bet to limit your losses. In that case, you would sell your trade at 816.7p.
Therefore, with the same £5 per penny stake:
Your P&L = (final price of the market - opening value of the market) x stake per penny
Your P&L = (816.7p - 835.5p) x £5 per penny stake
Your P&L = -18.8p x £5 per penny
Your P&L = -£94.00 loss
5) How do you Spread Bet on the Cadburys Market to Go Down?
A useful benefit of spread betting is that you can go short of the markets.
If you recall, initially the market was priced at 834.0p - 835.5p.
If you were to sell Cadburys at 834.0p and the shares went down then the spread might become 812.7p - 814.2p. If this were the case, you might choose to close your spread bet for a profit by buying at 814.2p.
Your P&L = (opening value of the market - final price of the market) x stake per penny
Your P&L = (834.0p - 814.2p) x £5 per penny stake
Your P&L = 19.8p x £5 per penny
Your P&L = £99.00 profit
On the other hand, if the market increased to, as an example, 850.3p - 851.8p, you may decide to close your spread bet to limit your losses. If so, you would buy the market at 851.8p.
You would do this with the same £5 per penny stake:
Your P&L = (opening value of the market - final price of the market) x stake per penny
Your P&L = (834.0p - 851.8p) x £5 per penny stake
Your P&L = -17.8p x £5 per penny
Your P&L = -£89.00 loss
