How to trade JDE Peet’s shares

You’d ‘buy’ (go long) if you think that the share price will rise and you’d ‘sell’ (go short) if your prediction is that it’ll fall.
We enable you to trade JDE Peet’s shares in these steps:
- Create an account or log in
- Search for ‘JDE Peet’s’ on our trading platform
- Select ‘buy’ to go long or ‘sell’ to go short in the deal ticket
- Set your position size and take steps to manage your risk
- Open and monitor your position
With us, you’ll trade JDE Peet’s shares using leveraged derivatives such as CFDs.
Using leverage when trading means that you only need a small deposit, known as margin, to open your positions, while getting full exposure. Leverage increases both your possible profits and losses to the full value of the trade, so it’s important to take steps to manage your risk properly.

How to short JDE Peet’s shares
You can short JDE Peet’s shares via CFD trading with us. Short-selling means that you’re taking a ‘selling’ position (going short) on a company’s shares in an effort to make a profit from a falling share price.
With us, you can short-sell in these steps:
- Create an account or log in
- Search for ‘JDE Peet’s’ on our platform
- Select ‘sell’ in the deal ticket

Naturally, the share price could go either way – therefore, you’d incur a loss if it rises when you’re short-selling. But if your prediction that it’ll fall is correct, you’d make a profit.
As you’d be using CFDs when short-selling, you’d be trading with leverage. So, you’d need to commit an initial deposit to get full exposure to your selected position size of JDE Peet’s shares. But remember, when trading with leverage, both possible profits and losses are increased to the full value of your trade.
