What is it? Borrow low-yield JPY (0.1% BoJ rate), invest in high-yield currencies (USD 5.5%, GBP 5.25%).
Why JPY? Bank of Japan keeps rates near zero. You earn the interest differential (5%+) just by holding the position.
Example: Long GBP/JPY = Earn ~5% annually + any price appreciation.
The Math: 0.5 pip spread = Β₯500 per 1 lot (100k units). Trade 10 lots = Β₯5,000 per entry.
Annual Impact: If you roll positions weekly (52 times/year), that's Β₯260,000 in spreads alone.
Offshore brokers: 0.3-0.7 pips vs Domestic: 0.5-1.2 pips. Save 30-50% on costs.
Domestic (25x max): Β₯1M deposit β Β₯25M position β ~Β₯1.25M annual carry (5%).
Offshore (500x): Β₯1M deposit β Β₯500M position β ~Β₯25M annual carry (5%).
20x more profit potential. But remember: Leverage cuts both ways. Manage risk.
