Trading William Hill – An Example

Let’s say you like the range, you think it’s heading back towards 190p again. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of William Hill using a CFD, at the current price of 155p. To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume William Hill rises to 190p (+22.5%). Your profit would be £2250, 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. William Hill falls 5% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £500.
