Description and Table of Contents
Description
In recent years, a computer-linked worldwide network of financial markets has developed, allowing traders in financial and currency futures to take advantage of changing prices, monetary values, and interest rates around the globe on a 24-hour basis. As recent events have shown, this new network has created both opportunities and risks that many firms and individual traders are only now beginning to understand. This work is the first guide to this new trading environment and the special strategies and tactics it demands. The book includes sections outlining contract specifications, exchange rules and schedules, and other significant details concerning international trading procedures. The work should be of benefit to futures and options traders and investors, stock brokers, bankers, exchange staff members and financial consultants.
