Trading Unilever – An Example
Let’s say you like the Unilever range, you think it’s heading back up to 4383p again. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Unilever using a CFD, at the current price of 4127p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume Unilever rises back to 4383p (+6.2%). Your profit would be £620, 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 falls 3% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300.
