What is Forex Trading All About?

The Forex market, aka. the foreign exchange, is open 24 hours a day, during the business week of course.

What is the Forex market affected by?

Forex trading involves, or is affected by, all of the political, social, and economic changes that take place all around the world and take place everyday.

What is Forex and What Is Being Traded?

Traders speculate on the exchange rate between between currencies, for example the Euro and the US Dollar. Traders buy and sell currencies with the hope that the value of the currencies will change in their favor and that they will then make a profit.

The market starts the day in Sydney, Australia. Then, it moves on to London, New York, Tokyo and every exhange in between until it ends up back at Sydney and the Forex day begins again.

You may hear news on the television, on the radio, or read about it, and while it may be 8:00, 10:00 midnight or even later that news may affect your investments.

If you own stocks or mutual funds, you have to wait until the next business day, however with the Forex you can be on the phone or online making trades within minutes.

If you want to sell you will never not find someone to buy what you have and if you want to buy you will always be able to find a seller.

This means that prices are stable and spreads between the exchange rates remain narrow.

If you like to trade often already you know that the commissions for "stock" brokers and other related fees can add up quickly, however with Forex trading, there are few trades for which you are charged a commission.

When you make trades with the majors as opposed to other cross, it's less expensive.

Majors are the most popularly traded cross exchanges. They include USDJPY, GBPUSD, EURUSD, and USDCHF.

A cross is the word for a trade of one currency for another on the Forex trading market. It is called a cross because the one currency crosses the other as they change hands.

This, too, is different than centrally traded stock shares in which the more popular they are, the higher the price rises.

In Forex trading, even when the economy isn't faring so well, the market remains stable.

Because currencies work against each other, you can sell one currency if you think it's going to decline in value and then buy it back when its value decreases and make a profit!
