4) How do you Spread Bet on the Woolworths AUS Market to Go Up?
Woolworths AUS Financial Spread Betting Example
If you decide to spread bet on Australian shares like Woolworths AUS then, looking at a spread trading website like Capital Spreads, you would currently see a spread trading price of A$26.05 - A$26.12.
That means you can spread bet on Woolworths AUS shares to go higher than A$26.12 or to go lower than A$26.05.
With spread betting, investors bet on every unit the market rises or falls; in the case of the Woolworths AUS market a unit is A$0.01 of the share's price movement.
In this case, you could decide to spread bet £2 for every cent that the Woolworths AUS share price moves up or down.
Spread Betting on the Market to Rise
If you were to buy Woolworths AUS at A$26.12 and the shares went up then the spread might change to A$26.67 - A$26.74. If that were to happen, you might decide to take your profits by closing your spread trade at A$26.67.
Your P&L = (final level of the market - opening level of the market) x stake per cent
Your P&L = (A$26.67 - A$26.12) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = A$0.55 x £2 per cent
Your P&L = £110 profit
Markets can also fall, if the market dropped to, for example, A$25.60 - A$25.67, you may decide to close your trade to restrict your losses. Assuming this was the case, you would sell your spread bet at A$25.60.
Therefore, with the same £2 per cent stake:
Your P&L = (final level of the market - opening level of the market) x stake per cent
Your P&L = (A$25.60 - A$26.12) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = -A$0.52 x £2 per cent
Your P&L = -£104 loss
5) How do you Spread Bet on the Woolworths AUS Market to Go Down?
One benefit of spread trading is that investors can sell the markets.
If you were to go short of Woolworths AUS at A$26.05 and the shares fell then the spread could change to A$25.49 - A$25.56. In that case, you might want to close your trade for a profit by buying at A$25.56.
Your P&L = (opening level of the market - final level of the market) x stake per cent
Your P&L = (A$26.05 - A$25.56) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = A$0.49 x £2 per cent
Your P&L = £98 profit
Markets can also rise, if the market were to rise up to A$26.45 - A$26.52, you might decide to close your bet to prevent further losses. If that happened, you would buy at A$26.52.
You would do this with the same £2 per cent stake:
Your P&L = (opening level of the market - final level of the market) x stake per cent
Your P&L = (A$26.05 - A$26.52) x £2 per cent stake
Your P&L = -A$0.47 x £2 per cent
Your P&L = -£94 loss
