Moscow Exchange launches trading in a gold futures calendar spread

Beginning June 7, 2013 trading in a gold futures calendar spread to start on the Moscow Exchange"s Derivatives Market.

A futures calendar spread is a valuable instrument among professional investors trading futures contracts. It implies one transaction where a futures contract of one delivery month is bought and the same futures product of another delivery month is sold. A new financial instrument will allow investors to avoid slippage risk while rolling over futures contacts, and will provide new strategies to trade futures.
