  6. Loss on EDF.
    So,
    New capital : 100 000 - 1050 = 98 950$

    New trade on "KO" (coca-cola) BUY SIGNAL
    Buy tomorrow at open (about 54.75)
    Stop-loss at 52.20

    Risk on this trade : 4.65%

    Capital to use : 21 279 (formula : (((98950 * 0.01) * 100) / 4.65))

    It remains : 98950 - 21279 = 77671
