Could you please elaborate on the mechanics of currency derivatives? I'm interested in understanding how they function and how investors utilize them in the financial markets. Could you explain the role of contracts, the types of derivatives available, and how they are priced? Additionally, how do currency derivatives hedge against currency risks and what are the potential risks associated with trading in these derivatives? I'm also curious about the factors that influence the prices of currency derivatives and how investors can profit from trading them. Thank you for your insights. How do currency derivatives work?
