标题: Cross Rate with Ask and Bid [打印本页] 作者: bigredhockey55 时间: 2011-7-13 16:37 标题: Cross Rate with Ask and Bid
When calculating cross rates when given bid-ask quotes, do we take the mid-point of each of the two bid-ask quotes to derive the third? Or do we do something fancy that involves up the bid and down the ask?作者: Newhuman 时间: 2011-7-13 16:37
Ab x bc= ac
Ab/ac=cb
If you are given bid ask
Ab bid x bc bid= ac bid and vice versatile
Ab bid/ ac ask= cb bid and vice versa作者: luda002 时间: 2011-7-13 16:37

When you calculate forward rate, you use midpoint for bid-ask .. however when calculating bid and ask, you dont use any midpoints.
