What does the Cross Currency Calculator do?
The Cross Currency Calculator is simply the best tool we know of for professional traders to use for straight and broken data calculations. It also happens to be extremely cost-effective.
FX traders are asked continuously by colleagues or corporates for hundreds of possible Cross Currency quotes to all sorts of odd dates. GBPEUR to 3rd Sep., EURCHF to 16th May, AUDZAR to 4th Dec., CHFCZK Fwd Fwd 19th March to 4th August, GBPMXN to ….
There are about 800 possible currency pairings possible from the 20 main currencies that are heavily traded each day. Firm dealing prices are needed for these cross currencies from anything from T/N to any number of days to 1 year.
Without a flexible tool such as CCC, it is almost impossible to quote all these pairings, as outrights or perhaps as fwd points, safe in the knowledge that they are correct every time.
Would you really know if the NOK/CZK to 15th June should be -59, +45 or -200? Would you be able to, in sub 5 seconds, quote CHFEUR “Fwd Fwd” from 14th January to 6th June and then invert it to a EURCHF quote, followed by the prices to the same end date from spot?
Then could you move immediately to the next call and quote EUR/HKD spot to October 3rd outright? Don’t forget the bank holiday in Hong Kong on Spot date and the EUR holiday on the 3rd as well. But the 3rd is a Sunday … you get the picture!
