Trading Flutter (Paddy Power) – An Example
Let’s say the breakout appeals to you, you think it’s likely to continue to 6759p . You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Flutter using a CFD, at the current price 6014p (at time of writing). To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume the Flutter trend continues upwards to 6759p highs (+12%). Your profit would be £1200, 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. Flutter breaks lower, falling 4% and it hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £400.
