How to Spread Bet on NZD/CAD? |
As with a variety of financial markets, investors can spread bet on currency pairs, like NZD/CAD, to go up or down.
Looking at a spread betting platform like InterTrader, we can see they have priced the NZD/CAD Rolling Daily market at C$0.79489 - C$0.79569. As a result, you can put a spread bet on the NZD/CAD rate:
Going higher than C$0.79569, or
Going lower than C$0.79489
When financial spread betting on NZD/CAD you trade in £x per point where a point is C$0.00010 of the pairs movement. As a result, if you invest £3 per point and NZD/CAD moves 21.0 points then that would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £63. £3 per point x C$0.00210 = £3 per point x 21.0 points = £63.
Rolling Daily FX Markets
It is important to note that this is a Rolling Daily Market and so in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. If your trade is still open at the end of the trading day, it will roll over to the next session.
If you do roll over a forex position then you'll often be charged a small financing fee. You can find more on Rolling Daily Markets, as well as a fully worked example, in our feature Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
NZD/CAD Rolling Daily - Foreign Exchange Spread Trading Example |
So, if you consider the spread of C$0.79489 - C$0.79569 and assume:
- You have done your analysis of the FX markets, and
- Your analysis leads you to think the NZD/CAD rate will increase and move higher than C$0.79569
Then you could decide to buy at C$0.79569 and risk, for example, £3 per point.
So, you make a profit of £3 for every point (C$0.00010) that the NZD/CAD pair increases above C$0.79569. Conversely, however, it also means that you will lose £3 for every point that the NZD/CAD market goes below C$0.79569.
Put another way, if you buy a spread bet then your profits (or losses) are calculated by taking the difference between the final price of the market and the initial price you bought the market at. You then multiply that price difference by the stake.
As a result, if after a few sessions the forex rate rose then you might want to close your spread bet in order to guarantee your profit.
Taking this a step further, if the market did go up then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to C$0.79919 - C$0.79999. To settle/close your trade you would sell at C$0.79919. Therefore, with the same £3 stake you would make:
Profit = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profit = (C$0.79919 - C$0.79569) x £3 per point stake
Profit = C$0.00350 x £3 per point stake
Profit = 35.0 points x £3 per point stake
Profit = £105.00 profit
Trading FX, whether by spread betting or not, doesn't always work out as you would have liked. With this example, you wanted the forex pair to rise. Naturally, it could go down.
If the NZD/CAD market weakened, against your expectations, then you could choose to close your spread bet in order to restrict your losses.
Should the market fall back to C$0.79171 - C$0.79251 then you would settle your trade by selling at C$0.79171. That would mean you would make a loss of:
Loss = (Closing Price - Opening Price) x stake
Loss = (C$0.79171 - C$0.79569) x £3 per point stake
Loss = -C$0.00398 x £3 per point stake
Loss = -39.8 points x £3 per point stake
Loss = -£119.40 loss
Note - NZD/CAD Rolling Daily currency market quoted as of 11-Sep-12.
