Rollovers & Currency Trading

by Ahmad Hassam

Rollovers represent the intersection of interest rate markets and forex markets. When an open position from one value date or settlement date is rolled over to the next value date or settlement date, this is known as Rollover in currency trading. Rollovers are unique to the currency markets.

Rollover rates depend on the difference between the interest rates of the two currencies in the pair that you are trading. Only remember that what you are trading is in fact the good old cash. Dont forget currency is money after all.

Millions of Americans are moving heaven and earth to pay off their loans while an equal number of them are finding it extremely difficult to manage their loans. This can virtually leave you in a debt trap as a bad credit score will not allow you to get any kind of loan or set right your debt position. However, all hopes are not lost yet, as there are companies that are ready to lend you a helping hand in clearing your debts and improve your credit score, but you need to tread carefully so that you do not end up in a mess again.

Lets first define what Technical Analysis is. Technical Analysis is the study of historical and ongoing price data through charts, price patterns and chart indicators. Charts display price in time intervals using bars and candlesticks.

Technical Analysis is based on the following assumptions. 1) All available information is already impounded in the market prices of the securities. 2) Prices always move in trends or patterns. 3) History repeats itself meaning you can predict the future market by studying the past market prices.

Few things are more satisfying to me that bare chart trading. Ive seen traders with so many indicators on their screen that I could not even see the price of the currency pair. What do any of these indicators tell you anyway? Do I need a MACD or a CCI? I can see which direction the trend is moving without them. How about a stochastic? I can see where candles are closing relative to the high or low. Other than some horizontal lines at key support and resistance levels, some Fibonacci retracements, and trend lines I often have nothing on my charts at all. All of these are topics for future articles.
