Trading Hikma – An Example
Let’s say you feel that the stock is a bargain and you think could bounce back towards 1790p. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Hikma using a CFD, at the current price of 1662p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume Hikma recovers back to this week’s highs of 1790p (+7.7%). Your profit would be £770, from your initial investment of £2,000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 4% from the current price. Hikma falls 4% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £400.
