Trading G4S – An Example
Let’s say you feel that the stock is a bargain and you think it could bounce back to recent highs of 225p. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of G4S using a CFD, at the current price of 197p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume G4S recovers back to 225p (+14.2%). Your profit would be £1420, from your initial investment of £2000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 6% from the current price. G4S falls 6% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £600.
