Trading Plus500 – An Example

Let’s say you feel that the stock is a bargain and you think could bounce back towards 1652p recent highs. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Plus500 using a CFD, at the current price of 1042p. To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume Plus500 recovers back to 1652p this week’s highs (+58.5%). Your profit would be £5850, from your initial investment of £2,000.

Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 9% from the current price. Plus500 falls 9% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £900.
