Suppose you buy (take a long position in) a
contract on November 1
The contract expires on December 21
The prices are as shown
How much do you gain or lose a) on the first
day, b) on the second day, c) over the whole
time until expiration?
Example continued
If on Nov. 1 you know that you will have $1
million to invest on for three months on Dec 21,
the contract locks in a rate of
100 - 97.12 = 2.88%
In the example you earn 100 97.42 = 2.58%
on $1 million for three months (=$6,450) and
make a gain day by day on the futures contract
of 30$25 =$750
