What is interest rate trading?
Interest rate trading is the buying and selling of markets that are priced based on the interest rates set by banks: including Euribor, Eurodollar and Short Sterling. It enables you to find short-term opportunities based on whether you think rates will rise or fall.
You can also use interest rate markets to hedge against risk – if you have another trade that could be negatively affected by a rate rise, you can trade the rate directly to offset that risk.
To start trading rates, open a FOREX.com demo trading account. Or follow the link below to trade with real funds.

Interest rates FAQ
How does interest rate trading work?
Interest rate trading works using futures, which are priced based on current and expected interest rates. With FOREX.com, you'll be buying or selling CFDs that are based on interest rate futures.
Say, for example, that you buy Euribor CFDs. If Euribor goes up, you can sell your CFDs for a profit. However, if it goes down, you will make a loss.
