FOMC and Naked: Difference between pages

Revision as of 10:05, 7 October 2015

A 'naked' position in a derivatives contract is one where the holder has no other related offsetting contract, asset or liability.

The only possible profit or gain is from a favourable outturn market price.

Naked positions are, by definition, speculative (rather than hedging).
