How to Spread Bet on AUD/JPY? |
As with a wide variety of global markets, an investor can speculate on forex pairs, such as AUD/JPY, to rise or fall.
Looking at a spread betting platform like Capitalspreads, we can see they have priced the AUD/JPY Rolling Daily market at ¥81.205 - ¥81.245. As a result, an investor could put a spread bet on the AUD/JPY rate:
 Moving above ¥81.245, or
 Moving below ¥81.205
Whilst making a spread bet on AUD/JPY you trade in £x per point where a point is ¥0.010 of the pairs movement. So, if you decided to risk £3 per point and AUD/JPY moves 24.0 points then that would alter your P&L by £72. £3 per point x ¥0.240 = £3 per point x 24.0 points = £72.
Rolling Daily FX Markets
One important thing to note is that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so there is no settlement date for this market. If your trade is open at the end of the day, it just rolls over to the next trading session.
Should your FX bet roll over then you'll usually be charged a small overnight financing fee. For a worked example please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
AUD/JPY Rolling Daily - Forex Spread Betting Example |
If you consider the spread of ¥81.205 - ¥81.245 and assume:
- you have done your analysis, and
- you feel that the AUD/JPY market will increase and go above ¥81.245
then you might decide that you are going to go long of the market at ¥81.245 and risk, let’s say, £4 per point.
This means that you make a profit of £4 for every point (¥0.010) that the AUD/JPY FX pair rises higher than ¥81.245. Conversely, however, it also means that you will make a loss of £4 for every point that the AUD/JPY market moves below ¥81.245.
Looking at this from another angle, should you ‘Buy’ a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are calculated by taking the difference between the closing price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
With this in mind, if after a few hours the currency rate started to increase then you might think about closing your position in order to lock in your profit.
Taking this a step further, if the market did go up then the spread, set by the spread betting company, might move up to ¥81.570 - ¥81.610. You would close/settle your spread bet by selling at ¥81.570. As a result, with the same £4 stake your profit would come to:
Profit = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Profit = (¥81.570 - ¥81.245) x £4 per point stake
Profit = ¥0.325 x £4 per point stake
Profit = 32.5 points x £4 per point stake
Profit = £130.00 profit
Speculating on FX, by spread betting or otherwise, can go against you. In this case, you wanted the currency pair to increase. Of course, it might go down.
If the AUD/JPY rate had fallen then you might choose to close your trade to stop any further losses.
So if the spread fell to ¥80.879 - ¥80.919 then this means you would sell back your position at ¥80.879. That would mean you would make a loss of:
Loss = (Settlement Level - Initial Level) x stake
Loss = (¥80.879 - ¥81.245) x £4 per point stake
Loss = -¥0.366 x £4 per point stake
Loss = -36.6 points x £4 per point stake
Loss = -£146.40 loss
Note - AUD/JPY Rolling Daily market accurate as of 11-Sep-12.
