1. How to Spread Bet on Liberty International shares?
At the moment, the price of the Liberty International (December) market is 499.9p - 501.8p with spread trading firms like Paddypowertrader.
As with most large cap shares listed on the leading exchanges, an investor can place a spread bet on the future price of Liberty International shares to go up or go down in value. With the Liberty International (December) market, which closes on 15-Dec-09, you can bet on:
a) Liberty International shares to settle above 501.8p on the expiry date, or
b) Liberty International shares to settle below 499.9p on the expiry date.
Note that with the Liberty International market you trade in £X per penny, where a penny is 1p of Liberty International share price movement. As a result, if you invested £6 per penny and the Liberty International share price moved 8p then that would make a difference to your profits (or losses) of £48.
Liberty International Shares Trading Example
As an example, let’s assume you see the live price on an online spread betting website and it gives a spread of 499.9p - 501.8p. Following suitable analysis, you might think that the Liberty International shares should rise and settle above 501.8p. Therefore:
- You believe the Liberty International share price will go up
- You decide you want to go long of the market at 501.8p and you bet £3 per penny
- The market rises. You allow your bet to run to the settlement date of 15-Dec-09
- Ultimately, the shares close at 528.0p
- Initial price you bought the spread bet at: 501.8p
- Profits (or losses) = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = (528.0p - 501.8p) x £3 stake
- Profits (or losses) = 26.2p x £3 stake
- Profits (or losses) = £78.60 profit
Investing does not always go to plan. If the trade didn’t work as forecast, and had the Liberty International stock decreased in price, closing at a lower than expected level of 477.0p, then you would have made a loss instead of a profit.
- Your initial buy price = 501.8p
- Profits (or losses) = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = (477.0p - 501.8p) x £3 stake
- Profits (or losses) = -24.8p x £3 stake
- Profits (or losses) = -£74.40 loss
