The foreign exchange market is the largest and most liquid
financial market in the world. In recent years its volatility has
been especially pronounced, which has posed problems for investors,
companies and governments attempting to manage their economies. The
management of exchange rates has become integral to economic
performance and to the political landscape. 'Foreign Exchange, The
Complete Deal', part of Harriman House's Applied Essentials series,
is a comprehensive guide to this broad and exciting market, and how
it is traded. James Sharpe, a foreign exchange practitioner with
more than 30 years' experience, unravels the important features of
the Forex market to give a clear understanding of the issues and
processes involved in foreign exchange transactions. This book
begins with an exploration of the historical and theoretical
background to the markets as they exist today. The transition from
a fixed exchange rate system to a floating system is examined and
insight is given on the processes that determine exchange rates and
how the system employed impacts government policy. There is also a
detailed section about the influence interventions by central banks
have on the market. The focus then moves to foreign exchange in
practice, the core of the book. Topics covered include: - The range
of foreign exchange transactions available - including spot,
forward, broken date, non-deliverable forwards (NDFs), swaps and
options - and how they can be used, with clear worked examples -
How foreign exchange prices are quoted; bid-offer spreads; pips -
How foreign exposures are hedged - How banks and dealers cover
their exposure in the market and make profits - A discussion of
tools that are used to analyse the market, including technical
analysis - Factors that influence foreign exchange prices on a
daily basis including a detailed look at liquidity - How
professional traders analyse markets and provide a blueprint for
professional trading - How best to choose and manage the
relationship with foreign exchange providers This is an
indispensable guide for those who need to understand more about the
commercial realities of currency trading and hedging, providing a
clear and thorough explanation of the complete world of foreign
exchange.
