Well if the both markets move adversely by 1%, the outcomes are very different for each scenario.
long XYZ 5ppp @ 1000 = -£50
long XYZ 5ppp @ 10000= -£500
Still penny newbie stuff.
Why not:
long XYZ 0.5ppp @ 1000 = -£500
long XYZ 5.00ppp @ 1000 = -£5000
See size matters, not all men are created equal.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.
