Spread Betting Answers:
1. How to Spread Bet on McDonalds shares?
Currently, the price of the McDonalds Rolling Daily market is $61.95 - $62.05 with Tradefair.
As with many equities listed on the leading stock exchanges like the New York Stock Exchange, an investor can bet on the McDonalds shares to go up or go down in value. With the McDonalds Rolling Daily market, you can place a spread bet on:
a) McDonalds shares to rise above $62.05, or
b) McDonalds shares to fall below $61.95.
Note that with the McDonalds market you trade in £X per cent, where a cent is 1¢ of McDonalds share movement. As a quick example, if your stake was £4 per cent and the McDonalds share price moved 4¢ then that would result in a difference to your P&L of £16.
McDonalds Shares Trading Example
As a result, let’s say you see the live price on a spread trading website and it gives a spread of $61.95 - $62.05. After suitable research, you come to feel that the McDonalds share price could go higher than $62.05. This means:
- You think the McDonalds shares will increase
- Therefore, you decide you are going to ‘buy’ the market at $62.05 and you bet £2 per cent
- The share price rises with the market changing to $62.67 - $62.77
- With the new price you can choose to take a profit and close your position. You would do this by selling at $62.67
- Buy price: $62.05
- Profits (or losses) = (Final Price - Initial Price) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = ($62.67 - $62.05) x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = $0.62 x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = 62¢ x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = £124 profit
Spread bets don’t always go to plan. If the trade did not move as forecast, and had the McDonalds stock decreased in value, with the spread decreasing to $61.49 - $61.59, then you could decide to settle your bet and restrict your loss by selling at $61.49.
- You initially bought the market at $62.05
- Profits (or losses) = (Final Price - Initial Price) x stake
- Profits (or losses) = ($61.49 - $62.05) x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = -$0.56 x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = -56¢ x £2 per cent
- Profits (or losses) = -£112 loss
Note that with a Rolling Daily Financial Spread Bet if you Roll a bet over to the next day you might incur a charge or income for every day that the trade is held into the next trading day. For more details read: Rolling Daily Spread Betting Charges.
