Stock renting and Borrowing
On Rent stocks via SLBM in Dhan, futures spread refers to the difference between the spot price of a stock and its futures price. It helps you quickly identify if a future is trading at a premium (above spot) or discount (below spot), which is useful for arbitrage trading.
How is it calculated?
Futures Spread = Spot Price - Futures Price
Example:
Spot Price of Stock A = ₹500
Futures Price (current month) = ₹490
Futures Spread = 500 – 490 = ₹10
This means the future is trading at a ₹10 discount.
