A Guide to Spread Trading on Vodafone

Market:	Vodafone Rolling Daily
The Price:	170.9p - 171.2p
How the Trade Works:	Now you can bet on the Vodafone Rolling Daily market moving:   Above 171.2p, or   Below 170.9p This spread betting market is a 'Rolling Daily' market and so there is no final closing date for this spread bet. If you haven't closed your trade and the trading session ends then your trade will roll over into the next trading day. Note that if the trade is rolled over then you will either have to pay or receive a small fee for overnight financing depending on whether you are betting on the market to move higher or lower. For further details see Rolling Spread Bets.
Units (Points) Traded:	Spread betting trades on the Vodafone market are made in £x per penny. Where a penny is 1p of the UK share's price movement. E.g. if Vodafone changes by 40p then you would win / lose 40 multiples of your stake.
Stake per Unit:	You choose what to risk per penny, e.g. £2 per penny, £3 per penny, £10 per penny etc.
Brief Staking Exercise:	With that in mind, if your stake was £3 per penny and Vodafone moves by 27p, you would win or lose £3 per penny x 27p = £81.
