How to Spread Bet on USD/DKK? |
As with a variety of markets, investors can speculate on currency pairs, such as USD/DKK, to either rise or fall.
Looking at a site like capital spreads, you can see that they are currently pricing the USD/DKK Rolling Daily market at kr. 5.79444 - kr. 5.79644. As a result, you could spread bet on the USD/DKK rate:
 Rising above kr. 5.79644, or
 Falling below kr. 5.79444
Whilst spread trading on USD/DKK you trade in £x per point where a point is kr. 0.00010 of the pairs movement. So, if you chose to risk £3 per point and USD/DKK moves 36.0 points then there would be a difference to your profits (or losses) of £108. £3 per point x kr. 0.00360 = £3 per point x 36.0 points = £108.
Rolling Daily FX Markets
You should note that this is a 'Rolling Daily Market', therefore in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. If you leave your position open at the end of the day, it simply keeps rolling over into the next day.
If you do let your forex trade roll over then you will be charged a small overnight financing fee. To learn more about Rolling Daily Markets please see Rolling Daily Spread Betting.
USD/DKK Rolling Daily - Foreign Exchange Trading Example |
If you consider the spread of kr. 5.79444 - kr. 5.79644 and make the assumptions:
- You've completed your analysis of the foreign exchange markets, and
- You feel that the USD/DKK rate will rise higher than kr. 5.79644
Then you may choose to go long of the market at kr. 5.79644 for a stake of £2 per point.
With such a spread bet you make a profit of £2 for every point (kr. 0.00010) that the USD/DKK pair rises above kr. 5.79644. Nevertheless, you will lose £2 for every point that the USD/DKK market moves lower than kr. 5.79644.
Looked at another way, if you were to buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is 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 price difference by the stake.
With this in mind, if after a few trading sessions the currency rate started to increase then you might think about closing your trade so that you can lock in your profit.
As an example, if the market increased then the spread, determined by the spread betting company, could be adjusted to kr. 5.80311 - kr. 5.80511. In order to close your position you would sell at kr. 5.80311. So, with the same £2 stake you would calculate your profit as:
Profits (or losses) = (Settlement Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (kr. 5.80311 - kr. 5.79644) x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = kr. 0.00667 x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = 66.7 points x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = £133.40 profit
Speculating on forex won’t always go to plan. In this case, you wanted the forex pair to rise. Nevertheless, the forex rate might go down.
If the USD/DKK market had started to drop then you might decide to settle/close your spread bet in order to limit your losses.
So if the spread pulled back to kr. 5.79064 - kr. 5.79264 then this means you would settle your trade by selling at kr. 5.79064. So your loss would be calculated as:
Profits (or losses) = (Settlement Price - Opening Price) x stake
Profits (or losses) = (kr. 5.79064 - kr. 5.79644) x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = -kr. 0.00580 x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = -58.0 points x £2 per point stake
Profits (or losses) = -£116.00 loss
