Financial Betting

Financial betting with Ladbrokes is an innovative and exciting new way to speculate on the movements of financial markets. Financial betting offers you the ability to place a bet on whether a specific product (e.g. UK 100 index) will finish above or below a predetermined market level.

What is a Financial Bet?

Ladbrokes Financial bets are fixed odds bets. They pay a fixed amount on expiry. If your financial bet loses, your loss is limited to the value of your stake.

Example: Daily UK 100 bet

You want to place a bet when the UK 100 level is 4200.0. The odds that the UK 100 will be higher than this at market close are 5/6.

You bet £10 that the UK 100 will close above 4200.0.

The UK 100 closes at 4210.3 so you win £18.33 (including your £10 stake). If the UK 100 had closed below 4200.0, you would have only lost your £10 stake.

If the UK 100 had closed at exactly 4200.0 then your bet is deemed to be a dead heat and half your stake will pay full odds.

What is the difference between a Moving Odds/Static Level bet and a Static Odds/Moving Level bet?
 

Moving Odds/Static Level Betting

This option offers three different (static) market levels on which you can place your bets during your chosen betting period. There is a mid line (starting level), a high line and a low line at which you can place a bet. The mid line (starting level) displayed is the actual market close price at the end of the last betting period, with a high and low level either side of this. The high line and low line market levels are based on a reasonable assessment of market volatility for your chosen time period. These high and low lines allow you to get greater value from your betting if you think that the market level is going to significantly rise or fall during your chosen betting period.

For each line you can take one of two views:
  • The market will finish above the fixed market level at expiry, or
  • The market will finish below the fixed market level at expiry.

During the betting period, these market levels remain fixed (except in times of exceptional market volatility). The odds move to reflect the changing likelihood of the outcome.

The two examples below detail an hourly betting period available on the UK 100. Five minute, hourly and daily betting periods are available on the UK 100 Index, the US 30 and a range of FX and commodities markets).

Example: UK 100 Moving Odds/Static Level hourly bet expiring at 13:00

The UK 100 market level at 12:00 is 4636.1. This corresponds to the expiry level at the end of the previous betting period. This level forms the basis for the mid line (starting level) betting. Based on a reasonable assessment of market volatility for this time period, the high line and low lines are fixed at 4645.2 and 4627.7 respectively. Therefore odds offered on each line at the start of the betting period could be as shown below:



Example 1:
You expect the market to rise above and beyond 4645.2 by the close of the period at 13:00. You stake £100 at 4/1.

Two outcomes are now possible:
  • At 13:00, the market finishes at a level above 4645.2, for example 4651.2. You have won and collect returns of £500 including your original stake of £100.
  • At 13:00, the market finishes at a level below 4645.2, for example 4634.8. Your bet has lost. .

Example 2:
You have chosen to bet on the mid line (starting level) at 12:50. You have checked to see what the real-time level for UK 100 is currently and find it at 4640.3 (since the real-time live level for UK 100 has changed the odds associated with each level have moved). You feel that this level is going to fall between now and 13:00 and expect the expiry at 13:00 to be less than the mid line level of 4636.1. We are now offering odds of 7/2 on the UK 100 mid line market level finishing lower than 4636.1 as shown in the illustration below. You decide to stake £20.



Once again, two outcomes are possible:
  • At 13:00, the market finishes at a level below 4636.1, for example 4630.2. You have won and collect winnings of £90 including your original stake of £20.
  • At 13:00, the market finishes at a level above 4636.1, for example, 4640.2. Your bet has lost.


You may bet on either direction (up or down) on any of the three fixed lines at any point during the betting period. It is important to note that odds will change with market movement and the passage of time and, that odds may be more or less favourable at some point after the bet has been placed.

PLEASE NOTE: Outcomes may become so certain that they are no longer available to bet on.

Static Odds/Moving Level Betting

This option offers four different (moving) market levels on which you can place your bets during your chosen betting period. In this market there is a mid line (current level), a high line, a low line and mid line market spread. The mid line is the current market level for UK 100. The high and low levels either side of the mid line give you the opportunity to get greater value from your betting if you think that the market level is going to significantly rise or fall during your chosen betting period. The distance of the high line and low line compared to the mid line (current level) depends on two factors:

  • The odds associated with each line, and
  • The time left to expiry of that particular market.

You may take one of two views on each line:
  • The market will finish above the current market level at expiry, or
  • The market will finish below the current market level at expiry.

The mid line market spread offers odds of evens (1/1) on two market levels based around the current level for UK 100. Looking at the diagram below to illustrate this, it can be seen that the mid line level is 4636.3. The mid line market spread levels are 4633.3 and 4639.3. The mid line spread offers better odds than the standard mid line market because the actual UK 100 price has to experience greater change in order for your bet to win.

Whether you are betting on the mid, high or low line, or the mid line market spread, the odds associated with each line remain fixed. The resulting movement in the market levels across the various lines reflects the changing likelihood of the outcome.

Follow the diagram and example below to illustrate this bet type.



Example: Static Odds/Moving Level daily bet for UK 100 expiring at 16:30

Daily betting on the UK 100 begins at 08:10. In this market odds remain fixed for all lines for the duration of the bet. The passage of time and movement of the underlying market determines the level of the lines.

You expect the market level to finish below the low line (4614.9) at the close of the period at 16:36. You decide to stake £10 on the low line that the market level will finish lower than 4614.9 with odds of 5/1.

Two outcomes are now possible:
  • At 16:36, the market finishes below 4614.9, for example 4601.9. You have won and collect winnings of £60 including your original stake of £10.
  • At 16:36, the market finishes above 4614.9, for example 4631.8. Your bet has lost.

It is important to note that the levels will change with market movement and over the passage of time. Levels may be more or less favourable at some point after the bet has been placed. As the end of the betting period is reached, the lines will naturally converge. The same odds are always offered, so to reflect the changing likelihood of outcomes, the lines will move towards a central value.

The fixed odds for this bet type are as follows:

Above or below the current level (mid line – real-time live level) 5/6
Above the high and below the low line 5/1
Below the high and above the low line 1/20
Above or below the mid line spread Evens (1/1)
