    In other words you are saying (FC2 / FC1)bid = 1 / (FC1 / FC2)ask. Can you please send me a detailed proof of this. Cheers

    Yes your right. Thank you.

    One little thing more: You have divided $/Pound by $/Y. Please realize that this is the same as multiplying $/Pound with Y/$, which is what I did.

    That is perfectly right as well. Good. Just a little suggestion: Preferable go up to 4 decimal points with exchange rates. That may not mean much but when we think in terms of millions of dollars (or any currency), it will make a substantial difference.

    Cheers!!!

    I did it a little different but got the same thing.
    (Y/Pound)ask= ($/Pound)/($/Y)= 1.5675/.0104=150.72
    (Y/Pound)bid= ($/Pound)/($/Y)=1.5670/.0108=145.09

    (Y/Pound)=145.09-150.72
