Never invest more than you can afford to lose as some trades will lose and some trades will win. Start small to understand your own risk tolerance levels or practice on a demo account first to build your knowledge before investing.
  • Trading is not suitable for everyone. Trading is highly speculative and carries a significant risk of loss. While it offers potential opportunities, it also involves high volatility, and leveraged trading can amplify both gains and losses. Retail investors should fully understand these risks before trading.

Trading Strategy Example: Pinterest 

The following trading examples are for educational purposes only and do not constitute investment advice. Investors should conduct independent research before making trading decisions. An example trading idea for the Pinterest share price could be as follows:

Entry: Pull back to $32.00 
Target: Just below the highest analyst price target at $50.00 
Risk: Small, maximum 5% of the account 
Timeline: 1-12 months 
TRADE EXAMPLE  
Buy 10 Pinterest Shares: $320 (10 * $32.00) 
If Target Reached: $180 potential profit [($50.00 - $32.00) * 10] 
If Target Not Reached: Let's say a trader decided to close the trade below their entry price, at $20.00. This would result in a $120 loss [($20.00 - $32.00) * 10] 
Invest.MT5 Account Commission: 10 shares * $0.02 per share for US stocks = $0.20 (Triggers Minimum Transaction Fee of $1.00) 

Remember that markets are volatile, and Pinterest’s stock price will fluctuate. Despite its strong earnings and raised guidance, challenges persist around maintaining user engagement, expanding monetisation abroad, and navigating a volatile and evolving digital advertising landscape. The stock is down around 64% from its record high in February 2021.
