B. Trading Products

1. Forex & Commodities

Forex has the largest and most liquid market in the world today. The Forex trading turnover value is equivalent to approximately $ 4.0 trillion, which is three times larger than the average for stock and bond markets combined. The Forex market operates 24 hours a day and has transactions though a global network of banks, ranging from Asia, Europe and America. There is no centralized exchange for Forex, which means that the foreign exchange market is an over-the-counter market or decentralized financial market. Traders take advantage of Forex trading by speculating the relative strength of one currency as against another.
The global turnover in the commodity market is substantially high as commodity trading has always been a popular instrument for most investment managers worldwide.
Commodities can be interpreted as something of physical substance. In general, commodities are divided in two, the first being commodities that are generally a result of mining such as gold, silver, oil and other commodities that have limited resources in the earth and that require high source of funds to acquire. The second are commodities that are of agricultural produce such as sugar, rice, cocoa, coffee to name a few.
Commodities are easy to understand as far as fundamentals of demand and supply are concerned. Pricing in commodities futures has been less volatile compared with equity and bonds, thus providing an efficient portfolio diversification option for traders. What makes commodities so much more interesting and risky to trade compared to stocks is the amount of leverage available to the trader. In reality, the risk of trading in the commodity market will not be more than the risk that you set yourself.

Profit/Loss Calculation:

= (Selling Price – Buying Price) x Contract size x Lot

= (Rp 450.000 – Rp 400.000) x 100 x 5 = Rp 25.000.000,-

On the contrary, if the price of GOLDGR drops to Rp. 350.000, you will suffer a loss. Nevertheless, you should not have too much of a concern since the GOLDGR product is a physical-based asset. You still hold the bullion in your portfolio.  

Each lot is worth 100 grams of high quality gold bullion with purity level of 99,99% as standardized by ANTAM and international market. You may keep the gold you bought as ‘safe haven asset’, while still having the opportunity to sell it in the market when it reaches a favorable price.
