Spot FX
A purchase or sale of one currency against another for delivery of 2 business days after the original date of contract.
Fixed Delivery Forward FX
A purchase or sale of one currency against another for delivery of more than 2 business days after the original date of contract and also includes transactions of value the same day (value tod) or the next business day (value tom). The pricing of a contract are combinations of the Spot price and Swap points.
As a hedging tool against foreign exchange fluctuations, a Forward FX works well for your expected foreign currency trade receipt or payment on a known date in the future.
Option Delivery Forward FX
Similar to the Fixed Delivery Forward FX, the Option Delivery Forward FX works as a hedging tool whereby the delivery of contract can be anytime between the dates of contract to maturity.
