/PRNewswire/ --

David Jones' (DJS) share price rose 15 per cent today (Friday 29 June) when the

company confirmed that it has received an unsolicited takeover approach from

a UK entity.

Despite the initial mystery behind the unsolicited offer, other retail stocks in

Australia

also appreciated during the morning trade.

Peter Esho, Chief Market Analyst at City Index said, "The approach to David

Jones means only one thing - the domestic retail stocks are now in play and

M&A strategies which were previously on the back burner will now be brought

forward."

The local stock market also jumped higher as soon as some positive news from

the European Union's summit hit the market.

Trading the News

Trading the news is one strategy used by active traders who monitor the

market on a regular basis.

Takeover moves, mergers and acquisitions and big news events such as the EU

summit all present trading opportunities, particularly to day traders.

Trading Online

With CFD trading provider City Index Australia, you can use the online trading

platform to monitor market news, company analysis and trends to capture

trading opportunities.

Knowing the features and capabilities of your online trading platform will

definitely be an advantage for you and your trading.

Trading with City Index Australia

With City Index Australia, you can place multiple orders to execute a pairs

trading strategy.

You may also use pairs trading in Index CFDs such as the ASX 200, Hang Seng,

Nikkei 225, the US100 and the UK100.

Though many of these indices tend to follow each other's direction, there are

instances where they could go separate ways and that may present a pairs

trading strategy in a global scale.

There are different order types e.g. Good Till Cancelled, Good for the Day, Limit

Sell and Limit Buy, that you can place if you think the market will move one way

or another.

Remember, however you trade CFDs - they come with a higher level of risk and

are not suitable for all investors and you may not own the underlying asset.
