Forward Contracts

4XC offers forward contracts worldwide, which allows clients to lock in a price of an asset at a future date, providing them with the opportunity to hedge against price fluctuations and manage the risk.

What are Forward Contracts?

A forward contract is often used when two parties wish to buy or sell a currency pair at an agreed price in the future — you can think of it as a ‘buy now, pay later’ product.

In the contract, the buyer and seller agree on the price, quantity and delivery. The buyer is known to be taking a long position, whilst the seller is known to take a short position.

If you’re looking to hedge and manage your risk against future exchange rate movements, then forward contracts are an ideal option.

Forward Contracts Expiry Process

4XC Forward contracts CFDs are set to expire one working day before the contract expires on the underlying market. When a Forward CFD contract expires, all open positions will be closed at the settlement price. This process would usually take place on the day following the expiry. Open positions are not rolled to the next front month so any clients wishing to hold long-term positions must reopen the trade on the next available contract.
