SPOT RATE
Spot rate may also be referred as the ‘spot price’. It is the quoted price of a commodity or security or currency that is up for immediate settlement. The price is based on the negotiations between the buyer and seller where the buyer haggles for how much he or she is willing to pay while the seller pushes for how much he or she is able to receive in terms of payment. These things are dependent on market value and future market value accounting for the constant fluctuation of spot rates.
