Currency Derivatives are futures and options contract where you can buy or sell specific quantities of a particular currency pair at a pre-determined future date.
Currency Derivative Trading is similar to Stock Futures and Options trading. However, the underlying asset are currency pairs (such as USDINR or EURINR) instead of Stocks. Currency Options and Currency Futures trading is done in the Foreign Exchange markets. Forex rates are the value of a foreign currency relative to domestic currency. The major participants of Currency Trading in India are banks, corporations, exporters and importers.
- Offers diversification to your investments--
- Hedging opportunities to Importers & exporters, for their future payables and receivables.
- Gives trading opportunities because of volatility in currency
- Provides transparent rates to traders as it is exchange-traded
Forex Trading is done in currency pairs such as.
- US Dollar –Indian Rupee Contract (USD-INR)
- British Pound –Indian Rupee Contract (GBP –INR)
- Japanese Yen –Indian Rupee Contract (JPY-INR)
- Euro –Indian Rupee Contract (EUR-INR)
World over, there are two main types of currency market. The first one is the spot market or cash market. The second one is the futures market where currency futures are traded. In the Indian currency market, futures is the preferred way of doing trades
The first thing to remember is that in currency trading, the trade is always between a pair of currencies. Unlike in equity or stock market where you buy a share of one company, currency trading in India will involve taking a position on a currency pair.
For instance, the EUR/USD rate represents the number of US dollar one Euro can buy. If you think the Euro will increase in value against the US dollar, you buy Euros with US dollars. When the exchange rate rises, you sell the Euros back, and you cash in your profit.
Please keep in mind that forex trading involves a high risk of loss. Since you are dealing with a currency pair, there are more variables. But, risks are involved in any financial trade or investment.
When you do currency market trading, limit the risks by never doing trading based on borrowed funds and never stretch yourself. These are the only two major risks.
Like in any form of trading, there will be days when you will have more winner trades and there will be some days when you lose more. Learn from your mistakes and use them for your success. A good way would be to keep a notebook about your trades and see where you went wrong.
All currency futures & options contracts on exchange are net settled in cash in Indian Rupee. The final settlement price is the RBI Reference rate for each currency pair published on the last trading day for the expiry month.
The size of each contract for different currency pairs on the exchange are as follows:
- USDINR - USD 1000
- EURINR - EUR 1000
- GBPINR - GBP 1000
- JPYINR - JPY 100,000
- EURUSD (Cross-Currency Pair) - EUR 1000
- GBPUSD (Cross-Currency Pair) - GBP 1000
- USDJPY (Cross-Currency Pair) - USD 1000
