Trading example

You signed up and deposited $17,000 via credit card.

  • Equity: $17,000. (Deposits - Withdraws + P&L closed positions + P&L of open positions).
  • P&L = $0. (Total profit and loss of all open positions including daily Premiums).
  • Available Balance: $17,000. (Balance + P&L of open positions - Initial Margins).

You decide that Apple shares are likely to fall soon and go ‘Short' (sell) on Apple. 7:17pm - you click ‘Sell' beside the ‘Apple' stock in the main trading lobby page; the sell price is $100.


Your criteria are:

  • Number of Shares (CFDs): 2,000.
  • Close at profit rate: $90 (profit will be 2,000*$10 = $20,000).
  • Close at loss rate: $105 (loss will be 2,000*$5 = $10,000).
  • The total amount you sold short are: 2,000*$100 = $200,000.
  • The Initial Margin that is needed for the Apple shares is 5%: $10,000..
  • The Maintenance Margin that is needed to maintain Apple's position is 2.5%: $5,000.

  • Your position is now:
    • P&L = 0 (usually the spread of Apple is 1 dollar so you would have a P&L of -$2,000).
    • Available Balance after you sold Apple is: $7,000 ($17,000 - 5%*$200,000 = $7,000).
    • 'Equity': $17,000 ($17,000 + $0).

    8:03pm - Apple climbs to $103.

    • P&L: -$6,000 (2,000*$100 - 2,000*$103).
    • Available Balance: $1,000 ($17,000 - 5%*$200,000 - $6,000 = $1,000).
    • Equity: $11,000 ($17,000 - $6,000).

    You decide to cut your losses and buy Apple. 8:03pm - your market buy executes at $103. You lost $6,000 on the trade.

    • Equity: $11,000.
    • P&L: 0 (no open positions).
    • Available Balance: $11,000.
