Trading Ferrexpo – An Example

For the purpose of this example, let’s assume the Ferrexpo share price rises to 319p (+42%). Your profit would be £4200 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. Ferrexpo shares continue their downtrend, they fall 5% and hit your stop-loss. Your loss would be £500.
