Gold is in my view a rather unpromising asset. As the energy industry develops, mining as well as synthesising gold will become more than affordable.

Synthesis of money will always be more accessible than synthesis of gold (if they ever learn to synthesise it)

As for gold synthesis, I can say that it is unlikely to become promising. Unfortunately, it is a very labor-intensive and expensive process, as a result of which the cost of synthetic gold is much higher than that of natural gold. Why produce a product that will not pay for itself

It's just a convention of buying/selling currencies. When you bought euras for dollars, then you must perform the reverse operation - buy dollars for euras. These transactions are EQUAL as they cannot be separate from each other.

no... then I don't have to do anything...

please read from the beginning so you don't repeat yourself. It applies to everyone.

If you buy one currency and sell the other, the first goes up, the second goes down.
The same process can be viewed from another perspective...

let's not take into account the peculiarities of the economies of the two countries

What do you mean by that? Let's say you have 100 tugriks. And I have 100 bougriks. You say to me, "Eh, and let me buy your 100 bougriks for my 100 tugriks.

And I said to you: "Uh, no, let me buy your 100 tugriks for 100 bougriks." What, are we supposed to fight for the right to be called a buyer? We're both buyers. And we're both sellers.

There's another option, "Why do you need 100 bougriks? I don't need your tugriks, but I'll give you 100 bougriks and you give me 120 tugriks".

In all likelihood, the bidder should be able to offer a good price here.

my brain is boiling. it's a vicious circle.

The point is not the exchange rate. The question of the author of the thread is, what was it in the beginning, buying or selling? :)

 

So far I've concluded:

to open a position you need to find out how many pounds B.A. is going to buy

and how many francs is the end goal

))))) buying and selling happen at the same time, it's always the one who didn't start the bargaining that benefits.
