Application field
The personal composite trading instrument &WTI/JPY is used for trade and dynamics analysis of WTI oil vs the Japanese yen, as well as multi-year comparative analysis of oil quoted against other currencies. For example, by building a percentage chart in the NetTradeX terminal for two instruments &WTI/JPY and OIL - the continuous CFD on WTI oil futures in USD (Рict. 1), it is evident that two periods stand out in the last five years: from 2010 to 2012 Oil exhibited almost identical dynamics against both JPY and USD; from 2013-2014, Oil exhibits significantly higher growth dynamics against JPY compared with the growth against USD.
Traders, whose main assets and investments are denominated in Japanese yen, will be comfortable trading this PCI.
