a) Gilead Sciences shares to rise higher than $47.91, or
b) Gilead Sciences shares to fall lower than $47.84.
With the Gilead Sciences market you trade in £X per cent, where a cent is 1¢ of Gilead Sciences share price movement. As an example, if you had a stake of £4 per cent and the Gilead Sciences stock moves 5¢ then your bottom line would alter by £20.
Gilead Sciences Shares Trading Example
For example, let’s say you see the real time price on an online spread trading website and it shows a spread of $47.84 - $47.91. So, following suitable market analysis, you come to feel that the Gilead Sciences shares will go above $47.91. This implies:
- You believe the Gilead Sciences share price should rise
- Therefore, you decide you are going to ‘buy’ the market at $47.91 and risk £2 per cent
- The price of the shares rises and the spread moves to $48.58 - $48.65
- With this new spread you might choose to take a profit and settle your position. You would do this by selling at $48.58
- Initial price you bought the spread bet at: $47.91
- Profits (or losses) = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = ($48.58 - $47.91) x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = $0.67 x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = 67¢ x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = £134 profit
Investing does not always go to plan. If the market failed to move as predicted, and had the Gilead Sciences shares decreased in price, with the market going down to $47.29 - $47.36, then you could choose to close your bet and restrict your loss. In order to do this you would sell at $47.29.
- Your initial buy price: $47.91
- Profits (or losses) = (Final Level - Initial Level) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = ($47.29 - $47.91) x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = -$0.62 x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = -62¢ x £2 per cent stake
- Profits (or losses) = -£124 loss
Note that if you Roll a bet over to the subsequent day you might incur a charge or income for each day that the trade is held overnight. Further information can be found at: Rolling Daily Spread Betting Charges.
