Application field
The personal trading instrument &WHEAT/CAD is used for trade and dynamics analysis of wheat vs the Canadian dollar, as well as multi-year comparative analysis of the dynamics of assets quoted in Canadian dollars. For example, by building a percentage chart in the NetTradeX terminal for two instruments &WHEAT/CAD и OIL/CAD (the latter is the crude oil of WTI brand quoted against the Canadian dollar) (Fig. 1), it is evident that in the last two year period (2013-2014) wheat didn’t decline very much (-7%) while oil fell 32.5%.
