Trade Example
Although our CFDs follow the price of the underlying instrument, traders can maximize their trades by using customized leverage.
For example, if you were to invest only $500, your potential purchasing power may be up to 200 times (i.e. $100,000).
If the Japan 225 (Yen) is trading at 13,240 points, then the price of one Japan 225 (Yen) contract is priced at ¥13,240 (in this example the spread is not included in the calculations). The use of leverage grants you purchasing power to purchase as much as 755 contracts, for the purpose of this example, where 1 US Dollar equals to 100 Japanese Yen.
As such, if you believe that the Japan 225 (Yen) is going to rise then you may wish to "Buy" it, or “Go Long”.
If the price then increases to 13,500 points (+1.96%), the profit on that trade would be calculated as follows:
|
Open price |
¥13,240 |
|
Close Price |
¥13,500 |
|
Difference |
¥260 |
|
Profit on trade ($200 x 4 contracts) |
¥196,300 |
* This is not based on live data and is a hypothetical example. Figures do not take into account the spread.
If the Japan 225 (Yen)’s price drops below your opening price, then your potential loss is limited to your initial $500 investment.
