An exchange rate has a base currency and a counter currency.
Example:
$1 = £1.1050
In a direct quotation, the foreign currency is the base currency and the domestic currency is the counter currency. In an indirect quotation, the domestic currency is the base currency and the foreign currency is the counter currency.

Currency Conversion: $/£ -> 1.7350
- If 500,000 base currency then “X”
- If 500,000 price currency then “/”

“Bid” The price a buyer is willing to pay for a security.
“Ask” The opposite of the bid is the ask price, which is the price a seller is looking to get for his or her shares.
Bid Can not be greater than Ask
“Bid-Ask Spread” The amount by which the ask price exceeds the bid. This is essentially the difference in price between the highest price that a buyer is willing to pay for an asset and the lowest price for which a seller is willing to sell it.

“Bid-Ask Spread” - High Liquid Assets- Currency Pairs
• Highly Traded Currencies• Less Traded Currencies
- Major Markets Open (NY, LONDON)- Market Volatility
• High- Spread high• Low- Spread low

“Cross Exchange Rate” The currency exchange rate between two currencies, both of which are not the official currencies of the country in which the exchange rate quote is given.
Example: If an exchange rate between the Euro
and the Japanese Yen was quoted in an American newspaper, this would be considered a cross rate in this context, because neither the euro or the yen is the standard currency of the U.S.

Question: What is Cross rate JPY/EUR?
USD/EUR is 1.3649 / 1.3651JPY/USD is 1.6789 / 1.6791
Solution:
(JPY/EUR) = (JPY/USD) x (USD/ EUR)

“Implied Rate” The rate that is determined by the difference between the spot rate and the forward rate. The degree of relative costliness of a future rate can be assessed by comparing the implied rate with the spot rate.
Implied rate calculated as;
“Implied rate = Forward Rate – Spot rate”

Question: If the spot rate of LIBOR is 5% and the forward rate for LIBOR is 6%?
Implied rate = Forward Rate – Spot rate

The exchange rate represents the price of a currency, or the rate at which one currency can be exchanged for another.
Demand for a currency increases when the value of the currency decreases, leading to a downward sloping demand schedule.
Supply of a currency increases when the value of the currency increases, leading to an upward sloping supply schedule.
In liquid spot markets, exchange rates are not highly sensitive to large currency transactions.

Relative Inflation: Increase in U.S. inflation leads to increase in U.S. demand for foreign goods, an increase in U.S. demand for foreign currency, and an increase in the exchange rate for the foreign currency.
Relative Interest Rates: Increase in U.S. rates leads to increase in demand for U.S. deposits and a decrease in demand for foreign deposits, leading to a increase in demand for dollars and an increased exchange rate for the dollar. Fisher Effect:

If currencies A and B move in same direction, there is no change in the cross exchange rate.
When currency A appreciates against the dollar by a greater (smaller) degree than currency B, then currency A appreciates (depreciates) against B.
When currency A appreciates (depreciates) against the dollar, while currency B is unchanged against the dollar, currency A appreciates (depreciates) against currency B by the same degree as it appreciates against the dollar.
