4) How do you Spread Bet on the Smurfit Kappa Market to Go Up?
Smurfit Kappa Financial Spread Betting Example
Should you decide to spread trade on Irish shares like Smurfit Kappa then, on visiting a spread trading website like Capital Spreads, you would currently see a spread trading price of €6.00 - €6.07.
This means you can bet on Smurfit Kappa shares to go higher than €6.07 or to go lower than €6.00.
When you spread bet, you trade on every unit the market goes up or down. Specifically, for the Smurfit Kappa market a unit is €0.01 of the share's price movement.
For this instance, you could decide to trade £5 for every cent that the Smurfit Kappa share price rises or falls.
Buying - Spread Betting on the Market to Increase
If you were to go long of Smurfit Kappa at €6.07 and the shares rose then the spread could change to €6.34 - €6.41. If that were to happen, you might decide to take your profits by closing your spread bet at €6.34.
Your Profit/Loss = (final level of the market - opening level of the market) x stake per cent
Your Profit/Loss = (€6.34 - €6.07) x £5 per cent stake
Your Profit/Loss = €0.27 x £5 per cent
Your Profit/Loss = £135 profit
Markets can also fall, if the market had moved down to, for example, €5.81 - €5.88, you could choose to close your spread bet to limit your losses. If this were the case, you would sell the market at €5.81.
You would do this with the same £5 per cent stake:
Your Profit/Loss = (final level of the market - opening level of the market) x stake per cent
Your Profit/Loss = (€5.81 - €6.07) x £5 per cent stake
Your Profit/Loss = -€0.26 x £5 per cent
Your Profit/Loss = -£130 loss
5) How do you Spread Bet on the Smurfit Kappa Market to Go Down?
A useful benefit of spread trading is that you can go short of the markets.
At the start of the example, the spread was €6.00 - €6.07.
If you were to go short of Smurfit Kappa at €6.00 and the shares decreased then the spread might become €5.69 - €5.76. Therefore, you might decide to close your spread bet for a profit at €5.76.
Your Profit/Loss = (opening level of the market - final level of the market) x stake per cent
Your Profit/Loss = (€6.00 - €5.76) x £5 per cent stake
Your Profit/Loss = €0.24 x £5 per cent
Your Profit/Loss = £120 profit
Conversely, if the market increased to, for example, €6.16 - €6.23, you might decide to close your spread bet to limit your losses. If that happened, you would buy the market at €6.23.
So, with the same £5 per cent stake:
Your Profit/Loss = (opening level of the market - final level of the market) x stake per cent
Your Profit/Loss = (€6.00 - €6.23) x £5 per cent stake
Your Profit/Loss = -€0.23 x £5 per cent
Your Profit/Loss = -£115 loss
