You are right but you are agreeing with me

You just told me how the only thing that matters is your net position. The part of your position that IS HEDGED is not making any money from price movement, BUT it is LOSING money on the interest rate swap. So why not just trade the net portion and save that money?

So how are you doing? If you closed everything would you actually be up money, like in your example?
