Trading Segro – An Example

Let’s say the breakout appeals to you, you think it’s likely to continue towards 760p. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Segro using a CFD, at the current price of 693p. To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume the Segro trend continues to 2008 highs of 760p (+9.6%). Your profit would be £960, 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. Segro breaks lower, falling 3% and it hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300.
