The Dubai Gold and Commodities Exchange (DGCX) announced on Wednesday that it will launch contracts in USD/CHF, AUD/USD and USD/CAD on June 15. The contracts will be priced in USD and be denominated in amounts of 50,000 of the non-USD currency.
The DGCX already provides contracts in EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY and USD/INR. Volumes are up 128% year-to-date, but are still small by global standards: currency futures volume for the whole of Q1 2010 was $24.4 billion.
