Trading Polymetal– An Example

Let’s say the breakout appeals to you, you think it’s likely to continue. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Polymetal using a CFD, at the current price of 776p. To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume the Polymetal trend continues upwards to 944p (+21.6%). Your profit would be £2160, from your initial investment of £2,000.

Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 5% from the current price. Polymetal breaks lower, falling 5% and it hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £500.
