It is also widely used as a reserve currency after the U.S. dollar, the euro and the pound sterling. As is common when counting in East Asia, large quantities of yen are often counted in multiples of 10,000 in the same way as values in Western countries are often quoted in thousands.

IN-DIRECT QUOTES :
“Price of one Unit of Foreign Currency in terms of Domestic Currency”
e.g. USD/INR = 45.7700 / 45.7725
Buy One USD at 45.7700 Sell One USD at 45.7725 Spread 0.0025
In the international market, almost all currencies are quoted indirectly.

Conversion of two way quotes
Bid (INR/USD) = 1/Ask (USD/INR ) Ask (INR/USD) = 1/Bid (USD/INR )
Take the inverse of each rate (bid and ask) and switch them around.
Ex : USD/INR 45.75 – 45.80 INR/USD 1/45.80 1/ 45.75
0.0218 - 0.0219

Appreciation & Depreciation of Currencies
• The current exchange, (USD/INR) = 45.75, in 1 month INR/USD = 0.0219• Has the US dollar appreciated or depreciated?• By what % has the exchange rate changed?
• Convert INR/USD = 0.0219 to USD/INR = 1/ INR/USD = 45.80
• Now we see that US dollar has appreciated.• The % change per month is:
%10.045.75
45.75 - 45.80

Cross Currency Market
![Page 12: Market Graph](https://reader036.fdocuments.us/reader036/viewer/2022070421/56816095550346895dcfbcfa/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Cross currency trading refers to forex transactions that do not include the US dollar (USD). A cross rate refers to a currency pair that excludes the US dollar. An example of a cross rate is GBP/INR, in which the two currencies being traded are the British Pound and Indian Rupee.

Types of Cross Currency pairsHistorically, forex transactions had to involve the US dollar. When two non-USD currencies had to be traded, the trader was required to first convert the currency he/she was holding into US dollars and then convert US dollars into the desired currency. Cross currency trading bypasses this step.
There are two types of Cross Currency pairs.
1. Pairs involving the Euro as the reference currency, such as Euro/Japanese Yen (EUR/JPY), Euro/Swiss Francs (EUR/CHF) and Euro/British Pound (EUR/GBP). Cross rates that involve the Euro are known as Euro crosses.
2. Pairs that involve neither the Euro nor the US dollar, such as British pound /Indian Rupee (GBP/INR) and Japanese Yen /British pound /Indian Rupee (JPY/INR). These are called cross currency pairs or cross rates.

Benefits of Cross Currency
Cross currency pairs simplify forex trading. A trader can directly convert one currency into another, without first converting money into US dollars. This saves time and avoids unnecessary hassles.
Advantages of cross currency trading are:
1. Price fluctuations in cross currency pairs are usually lower than in pairs involving the US dollar. Cross currency pairs are, thus, suitable for traders who are new to the forex market.
2. Cross currency pairs can be used to diversify the portfolio.3. Cross currency trading offers high profit potential.

EXAMPLE
• Identify the two underlying rates for the required cross rate. For example if the cross rate is JPY/INR the two required rates are USD/INR and USD/JPY
• For each underlying rate get the spot price and the swap points for the required forward period as inputs
• Ensure that the forward value dates for each underlying rate is the same as that for the cross rate
• Derive the forward outright price for each underlying rate
