Future Hedging
2y ago#1You need to look at what currency the contract size is quoted in.
Suppose the contract size is in $'s, then if the transaction involves the need to buy $'s then we buy futures. If the transaction involves selling $'s then we sell futures.
Have you watched my free lectures on this where I do explain the 'rule' ?
