A Guide to Spread Trading on Google

Spread Trading Market:	Google Rolling Daily
Spread Betting Quote:	$602.50 - $603.84
This Means:	You can take a position on the Google Rolling Daily market to push:   Higher than $603.84, or   Lower than $602.50 This market is a Rolling Daily market which means that there is no expiry date. If you haven't closed your position and the session ends then your position will automatically roll over to the next session. Note: if a trade is rolled over then you will normally either have to pay or receive a small fee for overnight financing based upon whether you are speculating on the market to move higher or lower. For additional details see Rolling Spread Betting.
Traded Units:	Trades on the Google market are made in £x per cent. Where a cent is $0.01 of the US share's price movement. E.g. if Google moves by 50¢ ($0.50) then you would win / lose 50 multiples of your stake.
Stake (Trade Size):	You work out how much you want to risk per cent, e.g. £1 per cent, £3 per cent, £20 per cent etc.
Brief Staking Example:	With that in mind, if your stake was £4 per cent and Google changes by $0.20 (20¢), you would lose/win £4 per cent x 20¢ = £80.
