MCX operates from Monday to Friday and is closed on weekends. It may be closed on federal holidays. To obtain more exact information, you can visit the official website or check notice boards at an exchange.

2. What is the daily spot rate?

The daily spot rate is the price quoted at the end of each trading day for a commodity or asset. This rate serves as a benchmark for transactions and brings to the books the closing market conditions for that day.

3. Which is better, MCX or NCDEX?

MCX and NCDEX belong to two different types of markets. They also deal with two completely different varieties of commodities. While MCX is somewhat inclined towards metal and energy, NCDEX has specialisations in agricultural products. The right one depends on what a trader feels like focusing on and what varieties of commodities they are interested in trading.

4. How is the spot price determined?

The spot price is established based on the levels of demand and supply in the market. Fluctuations are caused by varied factors like production levels, geopolitical events, and the release of economic data.

5. Why is the spot price important?

The spot price provides a benchmark from which any subsequent future contracts and options are priced. It gives an idea of the prevailing market perceptions about an asset, especially its value, and, therefore, helps traders make decisions on whether to trade instantly or subsequently.

6. Why is the spot price lower compared to the future price?

The spot price might be less than the futures price because of carrying costs (storage, insurance, and financing), expectations of future price rises, or supply shortages that are expected to occur in the near future. Such a condition is known as contango, which is revealed if the market expects prices to rise in the future.
