Trading Saga – An Example
Let’s say you feel that the stock is a bargain and you think it could bounce back to recent highs of 141p. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Saga using a CFD, at the current price of 118p. To do this, you need £2,000.
Let’s assume Saga recovers back to 141p (+19.5%). Your profit would be £1950, from your initial investment of £2000.
Conversely, let’s assume you open the above position, and place a stop-loss at 7% from the current price. Saga falls 7% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £700.
