Useful information to master the “counterparty rate trade” that can immediately be used in practice (ebook, FX videos, EA) summary

One famous FX trading method is the “naka-chi (mid-rate) trade.” Many people may wonder, “What is naka-chi?” “Does it really make money?” “I’m not sure how to do it.” Therefore, this article focuses on naka-chi trading and summarizes useful articles and recommended products for practical implementation. Whether you are about to start naka-chi trading or you are already trading naka-chi, please use this as a reference.

■ What is naka-chi in the first place?

In banks and other financial institutions, the daily rate applied when a customer buys or sells foreign currency is called “naka-chi.”The naka-chi is determined independently by each financial institution based on reference rates from the foreign exchange market. Incidentally, the dollar-yen naka-chi is decided at 9:55 Japan time, and the rate is announced around 10:00.This is how it works..

Example: Mizuho Bank’s naka-chi

TTS (Telegraphic Transfer Selling Rate) is the naka-chi plus a fee, i.e., the rate at which a financial institution sells foreign currency to a customer. On the other hand, TTB (Telegraphic Transfer Buying Rate) is the naka-chi minus a fee, i.e., the rate at which a financial institution buys foreign currency from a customer.

■ The naka-chi’s distinctive price movements during certain times are used in trading — this is naka-chi trading!

During naka-chi hours, generally, trading in foreign currency by companies engaged in import/export is aimed at securing funds for business settlements, so the forex market tends to move more easily.In particular, on Godo days (days ending in 5 or 0), these transactions become more active, so price movements tend to be more volatile.This characteristic movement is what naka-chi trading aims to exploit. Don’t overthink it—remember that prices tend to move more easily around naka-chi times.

Regarding the dollar-yen,the period approaching naka-chi tends to see the dollar strengthen and the yen weaken, so a trading strategy of “buy before naka-chi and sell near naka-chi” is effective.
