How to Spread Bet on Forex - Australian Dollar - US Dollar Rolling Daily
As with a range of markets, an investor can speculate on FX rates, like Australian Dollar - US Dollar, to either rise or fall.
Looking at the Financial Spreads website, they are currently showing the Australian Dollar - US Dollar Rolling Daily market at $1.01739 - $1.01749. Therefore, an investor can spread bet on the Australian Dollar - US Dollar rate:
- Increasing higher than $1.01749, or
- Decreasing lower than $1.01739
Whilst placing a spread bet on Australian Dollar - US Dollar you trade in £x per point where a point is $0.00010 of the pairs movement. As a result, if you staked £6 per point and Australian Dollar - US Dollar moves $0.00050 then that would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £30. £6 per point x $0.00050 = £6 per point x 5.0 points = £30.
Rolling Daily FX Markets
This is a Rolling Daily Market which means that there is no settlement date for this market. If a trade is still open when the markets close at the end of the day, it simply rolls over to the next session.
If a bet is rolled over and you are spread betting on the market to:
- Rise - then you would normally pay a small financing fee, or
- Fall - then you will usually receive a small credit to your account
For a worked example please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
Australian Dollar - US Dollar Rolling Daily Spread Betting Example
If you consider the above spread of $1.01739 - $1.01749 and assume:
- you have completed your market analysis, and
- you feel that the Australian Dollar - US Dollar rate will push above $1.01749
then you could choose to go long of the market at $1.01749 and invest, let’s say, £3 per point.
With such a bet you make a profit of £3 for every point ($0.00010) that the Australian Dollar - US Dollar currency rate rises higher than $1.01749. On the other hand, you will lose £3 for every point that the Australian Dollar - US Dollar market falls lower than $1.01749.
Looking at this from another angle, if you were to buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are found by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that difference in price by your stake.
If after a few hours the foreign exchange rate started to increase then you might think about closing your spread bet and therefore guarantee your profits.
So if the market moved up then the spread, set by the spread trading firm, might move up to $1.02207 - $1.02217. To close your position you would sell at $1.02207. As a result, with the same £3 stake your profit would come to:
Profit = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Profit = ($1.02207 - $1.01749) x £3 per point stake
Profit = $0.00458 x £3 per point stake
Profit = 45.8 points x £3 per point stake
Profit = £137.40 profit
Spread betting on FX may not go to plan. With this example, you wanted the forex rate to increase. However, the currency rate might go down.
If the Australian Dollar - US Dollar market weakened, against your expectations, then you might choose to close your position in order to restrict your losses.
Should the spread fall back to $1.01342 - $1.01352 then you would sell back your position at $1.01342. That would mean you would lose:
Loss = (Closing Level - Opening Level) x stake
Loss = ($1.01342 - $1.01749) x £3 per point stake
Loss = -$0.00407 x £3 per point stake
Loss = -40.7 points x £3 per point stake
Loss = -£122.10 loss
Note: Australian Dollar - US Dollar Rolling Daily spread accurate as of 02-Mar-11.
