What is Spread Trading
The Spread Trading is the study of the strength of two currency pairs at the same time in order to assess which of the pair is able to outperform the other. The object of the study is the correlation, volatility in time and the strength of trend.
What are advantages of Spread Trading
Benefits are numerous and can be summarized in the following points:
- Hedging portfolio by not using Stop Loss.
- Never suffering from hunting Stop Loss that brokers are so good at doing!
- Do not need to worry about a market crash, like the recent decision of the Swiss National Bank to abandon the defense share of 1.20 EURCHF.
- The repercussions of the decisions of the ECB rate or policies of quantitative easing etc.
Why I spend time on Spread Trading
The spread trader aims to evaluate and control the prices of an underlying asset with respect to the prices of the underlying asset with different maturities or with related underlying prices.
For example, check how the EURUSD price evolves against the GBPUSD price. Or how the price of the future on the DAX expires in March with respect to the one with an expiry in June.
Spread trading requires strong insight from the trader. A good trader should not only look at the current price but how this evolves over time compared to other factors.
Making spread trading requires the ability to maintain and view different future scenarios in a single moment.
Spread trading can be applied both in the phases of trending markets and in phases of severe turbulence.
