Jordanian Dinar (JOD)

The Jordanian Dinar, carrying the code JOD, is Jordan’s official currency. One dinar can be divided into 100 qirsh or 1,000 fils, so amounts may be written using three decimal places. JOD 2.500, for example, means two dinars and 500 fils. The Central Bank of Jordan maintains a fixed exchange-rate arrangement linking the dinar closely to the US dollar. As a result, JOD does not move freely against USD in the same way as many floating currencies. The dinar entered circulation in 1950, replacing the Palestinian pound that had previously been used in Jordan.

JPN225

On many trading platforms, JPN225 is a broker-specific symbol for a CFD linked to the Nikkei 225 Index. The Nikkei follows 225 major companies listed on the Tokyo Stock Exchange’s Prime Market. It is mainly price weighted, meaning a company with a higher share price can influence the index more than one with a lower-priced share, even when the second company is larger. JPN225 is a broker label rather than one universal ticker. Depending on the provider, the product may follow the cash index or a futures contract. That choice can affect its quoted price, trading hours, expiry, and rollover treatment.

JPY

The currency code for Japanese Yen.

Judgmental forecasting

Jump diffusion

A type of financial model that incorporates both continuous and discontinuous price movements.
