Trading Paddy Power – An Example

Let’s say you like the Paddy Power chart and you think the price is heading back towards 6597p again. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Paddy Power using a CFD, at the current price of 6130p. To do this, you need £2,000.

Let’s assume Paddy Power rises back to highs of 6597p (+7.5%). Your profit would be £750, 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. Paddy Power falls 3% and hits your stop-loss. Your loss would be £300.
