Hey,

What is the cost of hedging a Forex position? I´m trying to see if it´s worth it.

Example, if i trade 1 lot spot fx EURUSD long position. I buy puts for protection, market go up 20 pips
i make 10$ X 20 = 200$ on spot fx, how much can i typically lose on my puts (spread included)?


Tell me what it usually look like for you.regarding profit on Spot FX Vs loss in your option (insurance). And what strike/delta on the put option you use.

Do proffesional FX traders hedge like stock traders? Seem so bad going in naked in a position with big lots.

Would love to hear
thanks
Dave
