Does the cost to keep a transaction open -say overnight, vary depending on the contract size? I want to play 10k lots long term and I am worried about the carrying costs eating all my profits.
How do you calculate the carrying costs and does it depend on the contract size?
I saw about 33$ per NZD/JPY per about $760, and I could be wrong, but that’s pointless if risk aversion is high and buying USDs. Check out the volatility on monthly charts over the last ten years and then decide if a carry trade is worthwhile in this environment. Which pair will you use?
