*Any spread width shown in brackets is the spread which will be applied outside of the market’s normal trading hours.

**Funding applied on daily basis to ‘Daily’ and ‘Daily Futures’ markets only.

***When placing a new trade the NTR Multiplier is calculated from the mid-point of the current price. E.g. if a share is currently trading at 199.7 – 200.3 with an NTR multiplier of ‘10% of the current price’ then the NTR Multiplier at that time will be 20 (10% of 200). Once you have an open position in a market, if that position is a buy it will be marked to the current bid price and therefore the NTR Multiplier will be calculated from the bid price. If the position is a sell it will be marked to the offer price and therefore the NTR Multiplier will be calculated from the offer price. Please note this means that NTR Multipliers will vary as the price and bid-offer spread of the market moves.


Market Description

The Euro Stoxx 50 is a blue-chip index that includes 50 of the super-sector leaders in the Eurozone.

The index is run by Stoxx Ltd, who are owned by Deutsche Boerse AG and SIX Group AG. The index includes companies such as Allianz, AXA, ING, Phillips, Renault and Volkswagen.

For financial spread betting the Euro Stoxx 50 is one of the most stable markets, with daily movements of 10-50 being the most common and changes of around 100 infrequent.

If you want to place a financial spread bet based on movements of the Euro Stoxx 50 Index with Spreadex, you can trade a product known as the Eurostocks 50 Index.

Spreadex offers a Eurostocks 50 Daily Future contract as well as different future contracts. These contracts will offer a spread on the Eurostocks 50 of, for example, 2,886 – 2,889. If you think the price will end up being higher than our spread at the contract’s expiry period, you can buy at the ‘offer’ or ‘ask’ price (the higher part of the spread). If you believe the price will end up being lower, you can place a trade to sell at the ‘bid’ (lower part of the spread).

If your trade is successful you will win the points difference multiplied by your stake. If your trade is unsuccessful you will lose the points difference multiplied by your stake.
