Application field
This personal trading instrument &RUS10 is used for the dynamics analysis and trade of the portfolio of Russian stocks (biggest issuers), multi-year comparative analysis of the behavior of popular stocks, as well as comparing the world stock indices’ dynamics with that of our index. For example, by building a Daily percentage chart in the NetTradeX terminal for 4 stock indices SP500, DE30, NIKKEI и &RUS10 (Fig.1) the dynamics of stock markets in USA, Europe, Japan and Russia during one year period (from October 2013 to October 2014) can be studied and compared.
Traders, who specialize in stock market indices and want to smooth the price volatility of separate stocks, will be comfortable trading this PCI.
The Daily percentage chart is also convenient for comparing the performance of separate stocks and the index (Fig.2) – for example, the &RUS10 index fell by 31% in 1 year, but the Norilsk Nickel (#R-GMKN) stocks gained 7% while the stocks of AFK Systems (#R-AFKS) dropped 70% during the same period.
To trade PCI instruments offered exclusively by IFC Markets, you need to open a free account and download the NetTradeX platform.
