Trading Ocado – An Example
Let’s say you feel that the stock is a bargain and you think it could bounce back to recent highs of 1,129p. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Ocado using a CFD, at the current price of 795.5p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume Ocado recovers back to 1,129p (+42%). Your profit would be £4,200, from your initial investment of £2,000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 10% from the current price. Ocado falls 10% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £1,000.
