Help!!!!

Carry Trades / Interest / Roll over.

I am confused! and I need help, I have spent hours speaking to brokers and I am still not getting the answer. I am looking to do position trades on GBP JPY, and on this currency there is a huge diffrential between the sept futures and the spot by over 200 pips.

So currently if I want to go short, and expecting to hold the position for several weeks the sept sell price is 24000, but the spot is 24318 - so I am getting 318 pips less. However, as time goes by and we come closer to expiry than the spot and future gets closer and closer.

So in my example, I start with a loss of 318 pips. Assuming that during this period say the spot goes down by 300 pips than technically I have not made any money - Is that correct??

HELP! Or am i being silly not able to understand?

I agree. Market Wizards is a great book. Definitely worth reading. I realised that the world's top traders often have very different styles.

Good luck with your trading too.

I don't understand your example. You're going short what?

The difference between spot and futures is equivalent to the economic value of the interest rate differential over the remaining life of the futures contract. You do know about carry?

Guys I need to Know the regulations on the Foreign Exchange markets in UK. Can anyone provide me helpful links for that. I went on the FSA's website and had a look at the Handbook, but got lost in it.

Thanks Sharky, i hope i had a guide like these, as simple as these if you want, when i started trading. Its true, when i did start i found lots of material but when you start everything´s new so you really dont know what´s usefull and what´s not, so you pay attention to everything, a clear resource like these will save lots of headaches.
Good one Shark!

Top Forex rap secrets

The FOREX plays a vital role in the world economy and there will always be a tremendous need for the FOREX. International trade increases as technology and communication increases. As long as there is international trade, there will be a FOREX market. The FX market has to exist so a country like Japan can sell products
in the United States and be able to receive Japanese Yen in exchange for US Dollar.
