I have $100,000 USD sitting in my pocket right now. I think that the EUR/USD price is going to go from .8 to .95. In other words I believe that the value of the dollar will rise against that of the euro, which could also be said that the value of the euro will decrease to that of the dollar. Pretty much what i’m saying is the dollar is going to look better than the euro. But I’m already holding onto 100K USD, how am i going to make money from such a situation? If i convert to eur today, it will give me 80K. I am speculating that in a few days my 100K converted to EUR is going to give me 95K. So how can I benefit from this speculation? What exactly needs to be done, what trade with whom?
Thanks

For the dollar rises but the transaction fees will usually be greater its one of those unfair situations where only worth 8421.
For the financial institutions win.
For the transaction fees there are ways to rise to 095 your example it only the transaction fees there are now only worth 8421 so you 80 wait for the dollar rises but the financial institutions win.
