Trading Unilever – An Example

Let’s say the breakout appeals to you, you think it’s likely to continue to 5375p . You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Unilever using a CFD, at the current price 4888p (at time of writing). To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume the Unilever trend continues upwards to a new record high of 5375p (+10%). Your profit would be £1000, 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. Unilever breaks lower, falling 3% and it hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300.
