Trading Acacia Mining – An Example

Let’s say you think that Acacia is likely to rise further as a result of this news. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Acacia using a CFD, at the current price of 150p. To do this, you need £2,000.

For the purpose of this example, let’s assume the Acacia share price rises by 10% following the news. Your profit would be £1,000, 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. Acacia shares fall back 3% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300
