today investors with only a few thousanddollars can have access to the Forex market 24 hours a day andaround 5 Ѕ days of a week.

The Forex market is a nonstop cash market where currencies ofnations are traded, typically via brokers called forex brokers.Foreign currencies are constantly and simultaneously bought andsold across local and global markets while traders increase ordecrease value of an investment upon movements. Foreignexchange market conditions can change at any time in response toreal-time events so it is also considered to be a highlyvolatile and fragile market too. Conditions of the Forex marketnever remain the same they changes every second.

The foreign exchange market dwarfs the combined operations ofthe New York, London, and Tokyo futures and stock exchanges.According to its size and scope it is many times larger than allother markets. Stats shows that spot transactions and forwardoutright Forex trading take place in the inter-bank market. 51%of the market is in spot Forex transactions, followed by 32% incurrency swap transactions. Forward outright Forex transactionsrepresent another 5% of this daily turnover, with options on‘interbank’ Forex transactions making up another 8%. Thereforethe inter-bank market accounts for 96% of the global foreignexchange market, with the remaining 4% being divided among allthe global futures exchanges.

For traders, Forex trading provides an alternative to stockmarket trading. While there are thousands of stocks to choosefrom, there are only a few major currencies to trade (theDollar, Yen, British Pound, Swiss Franc, and the Euro are themost popular). Forex trading also provides a lot more leveragethan stock trading, and the minimum investment to get started isa lot lower. Add to that the ability to choose flexible tradinghours (forex trading goes on 24 hours a day) and you have thereason why so many stock traders have flocked to day tradecurrencies.
