Trading Tesco – An Example
Let’s say you like the range, you think it’s heading back towards 243p again. You decide to Buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Tesco using a CFD, at the current price of 230p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume Tesco rises back to recent ceiling high at 243p (+5.7%). Your profit would be £570, from your initial investment of £2,000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 3% from the current price. Tesco 3% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300.
