How to Spread Bet on USD/HUF? |
As with a wide variety of markets, investors can place a spread bet on foreign exchange pairs, like USD/HUF, to go up or down.
Looking at a website like Tradefair, we can see that they are valuing the USD/HUF Rolling Daily market at 219.702 Ft - 220.102 Ft. This means that you can put a spread bet on the USD/HUF pair:
Moving above 220.102 Ft, or
Moving below 219.702 Ft
When financial spread betting on USD/HUF you trade in £x per point where a point is 0.010 Ft of the pairs movement. As a result, if you decide to risk £2 per point and USD/HUF moves 33.0 points then that would change your profits (or losses) by £66. £2 per point x 0.330 Ft = £2 per point x 33.0 points = £66.
Rolling Daily Forex Markets
An important aspect of this Rolling Daily Market is that in contrast with futures markets, there is no closing date. You do not have to close your trade, should it still be open at the end of the trading day, it just rolls over to the next day.
If an FX spread bet is rolled over then you are usually charged a small overnight financing fee. Our article Rolling Daily Spread Betting goes into more detail about Rolling Daily Markets and includes a fully worked example.
USD/HUF Rolling Daily - FX Spread Trading Example |
Now, if we think about the spread of 219.702 Ft - 220.102 Ft and assume:
- You've completed your market research, and
- Your analysis leads you to feel that the USD/HUF rate will push higher than 220.102 Ft
Then you may decide that you are going to go long of the market at 220.102 Ft and risk, for the sake of argument, £2 per point.
So, you win £2 for every point (0.010 Ft) that the USD/HUF rate moves above 220.102 Ft. Having said that, you will make a loss of £2 for every point that the USD/HUF market decreases below 220.102 Ft.
Looking at this from another angle, should you buy a spread bet then your profit/loss is worked out by taking the difference between the settlement 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 hours the forex rate rose then you might consider closing your position to lock in your profit.
As an example, if the market increased then the spread might change to 220.872 Ft - 221.272 Ft. You would settle your position by selling at 220.872 Ft. As a result, with the same £2 stake this trade would make you a profit of:
Profit / loss = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (220.872 Ft - 220.102 Ft) x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = 0.770 Ft x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = 77.0 points x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = £154.07 profit
Speculating on FX, whether by spread trading or otherwise, is not easy. With the above, you wanted the currency pair to increase. Of course, the forex rate can also decrease.
If the USD/HUF market had fallen then you could close your spread bet to stop any further losses.
So if the spread dropped to 219.266 Ft - 219.666 Ft you would settle your position by selling at 219.266 Ft. That would mean you would lose:
Profit / loss = (Final Level - Opening Level) x stake
Profit / loss = (219.266 Ft - 220.102 Ft) x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = -0.836 Ft x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = -83.6 points x £2 per point stake
Profit / loss = -£167.28 loss
