  1. Which company has option for Canadian dollar / Chinese yuan?

    The bid/ask might be very wide. Maybe try a CAD/USA USA/YUAN combo?

    Well you obv don't trade FX. Nobody quotes cadusd. It is USD/CAD. But yes, you can go long USD/CAD and then short USD/CNY (CNH) for the carry trade. USD/CNY is currently 6.5437x42

  4. Yea, i was thinking about that 2 pairs, but its for hedging purpose of my investment, since one pair makes it simple.

    Im not trading the pair. That's why i want option for this pair, or pair combo.

    The base currency convention differs between spot and futures, as with CHF.

    Then trade the futures! Also with JPY, but he isn't referring to the futures.
     
  7. Why would OP care about spot vs futures? He just wants instrument(s) to express his view with.

    Clown, because there is no volume in the futures. The OP stated "company" which one would would imagine means a dealer and not an exchange.

    Roids kicking in?

    > The OP stated "company"

    He obviously isn't a native English speaker.

    > no volume in the futures

    Sufficient volume for a retail investor. For that matter, he could trade FXC shares and their options.

    There was 10 contracts traded across all durations. He meant company. Really, dumptruck? He should trade FXC against Renminbi futures?
