[12:06.07]外汇交易市场不是有组织的市场,
[12:08.22]in the same sense as a stock exchange or commodity exchange.
[12:10.71]像股票交易所和商品交易所那样.
[12:13.20]In other words,there is no single,physical place where purchases and sales are executed.
[12:16.85]换句话说,根本就没有一个看得见的市场可以从事买卖.
[12:20.49]While markets are organized in various ways in different countries of the world
[12:23.20]虽然外汇交易市场在不同的国家有不同的组织形式,

[13:24.05]the spot market for spot transactions and forward market for forward transactions.
[13:27.50]供即期交易的即期市场和供远期交易的远期市场.
[13:30.95]The method of quoting the prices or rates of exchange for different currencies
[13:33.69]对各种货币标价或标汇率的方法
[13:36.43]takes one of two forms:
[13:37.99]有两种:
[13:39.54]the direct quotation method and the indirect quotation method.
[13:42.69]直接标价法和间接标价法.
[13:45.84]Under the direct quotation method,
[13:47.44]按照直接标价法,
[13:49.05]the rates are quoted in terms of a variable number of home currency
[13:51.60]推算出一个随汇率变动而变化本国货币数
[13:54.14]per fixed foreign currency unit,
[13:55.98]标价是以一定单位的外币为标准.
[13:57.83]and China adopts this method.
[13:59.52]中国采用这种标价法.
[14:01.22]Under the indirect quotation method,
[14:03.56]按照间接标价法,
[14:05.90]the rates are quoted in terms of a variable number of foreign currency
[14:08.44]标价是以一定单位的本币为标准,
[14:10.99]units to the fixed unit of home currency,
[14:13.68]折算为一个随汇率变动而变化的外币数额
[14:16.37]Notes:the rates are quotedin terms of a variable number of foreign currency units
[14:23.66]to the fixed unit of home currency,
[14:26.77]Notes:rate     long exchange rate
[14:37.66]pivotal rate     par exchange rate
[14:43.36]forward foreign exchange rate

[15:16.24]basic rate of exchange
[15:19.43]multiple rates of exchange rate
[15:23.04]the exchange market in London practices this method.
[15:25.03]伦敦外汇市场实行的就是这种方法.
[15:27.03]An exchange dealer always quotes two rates,
[15:29.18]外汇经纪人通常标两种汇率:
[15:31.32]at one of which,he wil l buy
[15:32.81]一种是他买进外汇的汇率,
[15:34.30]and at the other of which he will sell the foreign currency.
[15:36.59]另一种是他卖出外汇的汇率.
[15:38.89]For direct rates then,from the standpoint of the exchange dealer,
[15:41.39]就外汇经纪人的观点来说,对于直接汇率而言,
[15:43.88]the maxim is buy low,sell high;
[15:46.18]其标准是低价买进,高价卖出;
[15:48.48]for indirect rates,the maxim is buy high,sell low.
[15:51.43]对于间接汇率而言,其标准是高价买进,低价卖出.
[15:54.38]A distinction must be drawn between rates quoted by a dealer to this customer
[15:57.13]务须区分经纪人对其客户的标价汇率
[15:59.87]and the so-called market rates.
[16:01.48]和所谓"市场汇率".
[16:03.08]The market rates are those ruling between the dealer themselves as members of the market.
[16:06.13]市场汇率是指作为市场人员的经纪人同业中通行的汇率.
[16:09.17]For direct rates,
[16:10.17]就直接汇率而言,
[16:11.18]the selling rate to his customers will be higher than that of the market rate,
[16:13.98]卖给客户的汇率高于市场汇率的卖出汇率,
[16:16.77]while the buying rate will be lower than that of the market rate.
[16:19.42]而买进汇率将低于市场汇率的买进汇率.
[16:22.07]In the case of direct rates,low rates are for us,
[16:24.28]就直接汇率来说,低价汇率对我们有利,
[16:26.49](favorable from a national viewpoint)
[16:27.94]从国家的角度来看的话,
[16:29.39]and high rates are against us(unfavorable from a national viewpoint);
[16:32.43]而高汇率对我们不利.
[16:35.47]or vise versa in the case of indirect rates.
[16:38.32]至于间接汇率就相反. 金融英语单词 金融英语翻译 金融英语词汇 金融的英语 金融英语文章 金融英语证书 金融英语翻译公司 金融专业英语 金融英语证书还能考吗
