In this case, the opening price is 122.10 and the closing price is 122.50. The difference between the two is 0.40. Since the trader is long 1 standard lot, the profit and loss in USD would be 0.40 multiplied by the lot size, which is $100,000. Therefore, the profit and loss in USD would be $40,000.

    • A.

      251.67 USD

    • B.

      241.20 USD

    • C.

      351.76 USD

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. 251.67 USD
    Explanation
    To calculate the profit or loss in USD, we need to consider the exchange rate between GBP/USD. Since the trader bought GBP/JPY and sold GBP/JPY, we can cancel out the GBP and focus on the JPY/USD exchange rate.

    The trader bought at 177.90 and sold at 178.20, resulting in a gain of 0.30 JPY. To convert this gain into USD, we need to multiply it by the USD/JPY exchange rate, which is 119.20.

    0.30 JPY * 119.20 USD/JPY = 35.76 USD.

    Therefore, the profit or loss in USD is 35.76 USD.

    • B.

      400 USd

    • C.

      500 USD

    • D.

      None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. 393 USD
    Explanation
    The trader bought GBP/AUD at a rate of 1.8890 and sold it at a rate of 1.8940. To calculate the profit or loss in USD, we need to consider the exchange rate of AUD/USD, which is given as 0.7860.

    First, we calculate the difference between the buying and selling rates of GBP/AUD: 1.8940 - 1.8890 = 0.0050.

    Next, we convert this difference to USD using the AUD/USD exchange rate: 0.0050 * 0.7860 = 0.00393.

    Finally, we convert this amount to USD by multiplying it with the initial buying rate of GBP/AUD: 0.00393 * 1.8890 = 0.00742.

    Therefore, the profit or loss in USD is 0.00742, which is approximately equal to 393 USD.

    • C.

      700 $

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    B. 800 $
    Explanation
    The trader bought 2 standard lots of Gold Comex at a price of $1150 and sold them at a price of $1154. To calculate the profit or loss, we need to find the difference between the selling price and the buying price. The difference is $1154 - $1150 = $4. Since the trader bought and sold 2 lots, the total profit or loss would be 2 * $4 = $8. Therefore, the correct answer is $800.

    Rollover Interest charge in Future Currency Contract when a trader holds an open position more than 24 Hours?

    • A.

      True

    • B.

      False

    Correct Answer
    B. False
    Explanation
    The statement is false because rollover interest charges in future currency contracts are not dependent on the duration of holding an open position.

The duration of holding the position does not determine whether rollover interest charges are applied or not.
