Spread Betting Answers:
1. How to Spread Bet on Cisco Systems shares?
At the moment, the price of the 3M Rolling Daily market is $82.66 - $82.76 with Tradefair.
Like most large cap shares listed on the leading exchanges, you can bet on the 3M shares to rise or fall in value. With the 3M Rolling Daily market, investors can spread bet on:
a) 3M shares to increase above $82.76, or
b) 3M shares to decrease below $82.66.
It should be noted that with the 3M market you trade in £X per cent, where a cent is 1¢ of 3M share price movement. Considering an example, if you had a stake of £2 per cent and the 3M shares move 4¢ then your profits/losses would change by £8.
3M Shares Spread Trading Example
As a result, let’s assume you see the real time price on a spread betting website and it shows a spread of $82.66 - $82.76. So, after your analysis, you might feel that the 3M share price is going to move higher than $82.76. This means:
- You think that the 3M shares will rise
- As a result, you decide you want to ‘buy’ the market at $82.76 and risk £1 per cent
- The share price increases with the market changing to $84.00 - $84.10
- As a result, you may choose to take a profit and close your position by selling at $84.00
- Buy price: $82.76
- P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
- P&L = ($84.00 - $82.76) x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = $1.24 x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = 124¢ x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = £124 profit
Nevertheless, if the trade did not move as planned, and had the 3M share price decreased, with the spread decreasing to $81.60 - $81.70, then you could decide to settle your bet and restrict your losses. In order to do this you would sell at $81.60.
- Initial price you bought the spread bet at: $82.76
- P&L = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
- P&L = ($81.60 - $82.76) x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = -$1.16 x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = -116¢ x £1 per cent stake
- P&L = -£116 loss
Please note that when Rolling a bet over to the following day you may incur a charge or income for every day that the trade is still open. Further details can be found here: Rolling Daily Spread Betting Charges.
