Trading 3i – An Example
Let’s say the trend appeals to you, you think it’s likely to continue. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of 3i using a CFD, at the current price of 920p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume the 3i trend continues to 964p Jan highs (+4.7%). Your profit would be £470, from your initial investment of £2,000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 2% from the current price. 3i falls 2% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £200.
