Balanced and diversified FX management.

Striking a balance in FX management. Treasurers generally have had two options when managing cross-currency payments and receipts. These options can be broadly defined as: Strategic FX management to hedge present or future cash flows.

Hello Esha, thanks for joining the thread. I totally agree with you.

Interesting thread, I'll keep watching. Thanks for sharing your ideas!
Is this a purely quant approach or discretionary as well?
 
Have rebalanced, no new additions. The position value is slightly above zero leverage target of the actual balance. I will have to recalibrate exposure sizes, this will continually be a factor since the exchange rates are constantly changing.
Account balance: $100,706.88 USD

Have rebalanced positioning. Enjoy the weekend!
I still need to recalculate position exposure, so it is closer to 100k. Will do that this weekend.

My thoughts, a lot of traders are going to get smoked in the next few days/ weeks. Especially in Aud crosses, it's been handing out free money to people riding the trend, which I believe will end soon. Currencies are always volatile and it's easy to correlate that with societal issues, but looking over past charts, it's within parameters. We seem to have had big moves since May 25th and I want to associate it with the protesting. I think some of it is correlated since the volume has been greater. Long story short, I think a subgroup of traders has moved this market and another is going to turn it around.
Balanced exposure and the total position value is about 111k. I calibrated position sizes over the weekend, but currencies have been moving so much it's hard to keep up with the moves, especially when only re-positioning some currencies. Expect position value to always toggle above or under balance do to that factor, even though zero leverage is used.

The account balance is: $100,855.97 USD
