Trading Superdry – An Example

Let’s say you think that Superdry shares have upside potential as result of this broker upgrade. You decide to buy exposure to £10,000 worth of Superdry using a CFD, at the current price of 517p. To do this, you need £2,000.

For the purpose of this example, let’s assume the Superdry share price rises to 600p (+16%). Your profit would be £1600 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. Superdry shares continue their downtrend, they fall 5% and hit your stop-loss. Your loss would be £500.
