"how To" Start Trading The Forex Market?
By Martin Maier, Thu Dec 8th
What Is FOREX or FOREX MARKET? PART I The Foreign Exchange market (also referred to as the Forex or FXmarket) is the largest financial market in the world, with over$1.5 trillion changing hands every day. That is larger than all US equity and Treasury markets combined!
Unlike other financial markets that operate at a centralizedlocation (i.e. stock exchange), the worldwide Forex market hasno central location. It is a global electronic network of banks,financial institutions and individual traders, all involved inthe buying and selling of national currencies. Another majorfeature of the Forex market is that it operates 24 hours a day,corresponding to the opening and closing of financial centers incountries all across the world, starting each day in Sydney,then Tokyo, London and New York. At any time, in any location,there are buyers and sellers, making the Forex market the mostliquid market in the world. Traditionally, access to the Forex market has been madeavailable only to banks and other large financial institutions.With advances in technology over the years, however, the Forexmarket is now available to everybody, from banks to moneymanagers to individual traders trading retail accounts. The timeto get involved in this exciting, global market has never beenbetter than now. Open an account and become an active player inthe largest market on the planet. The Forex Market is very different than trading currencies onthe futures market, and a lot easier, than trading stocks orcommodities.

Your purchases of stocks, bonds orother investments, along with money deposited in your bankaccount, represent investments that rely heavily on theintegrity of the value of their denominated ¨the USDollar. Due to the changing value of the US Dollar and theresulting fluctuations in exchange rates, your investments maychange

in value, affecting your overall financial status. Withthis in mind, it should be no surprise that many investors havetaken advantage of the fluctuation in Exchange Rates, using thevolatility of the Foreign Exchange market as a way to increasetheir capital. Example: suppose you had $1000 and bought Euros when theexchange rate was 1.50 Euros to the dollar. You would then have1500 Euros. If the value of Euros against the US dollarincreased then you would sell (exchange) your Euros for dollarsand have more dollars than you started with. Example: You might see the following: EUR/USD last trade 1.5000 means One Euro is worth $1.50 USdollars. The first (in this example, the EURO) is referred to asthe base and the second (/USD) as the counter or quotecurrency. The FOREX plays a vital role in the world economy and there willalways be a tremendous need for the exchange of currencies.International trade increases as technology and communicationincreases. As long as there is international trade, there willbe a FOREX market. The FX market has to exist so a country likeGermany can sell products in the United States and be able toreceive Euros in exchange for US Dollar. RISK WARNING: Risks of trading Margined trading is an extremely risky form ofinvestment and is only suitable for individuals and institutionscapable of handling the potential losses it entails. An accountwith an broker allows you to trade foreign currencies on ahighly leveraged basis (up to about 400 times your accountequity).The funds in an account that is trading at maximumleverage may be completely lost if the position(s) held in theaccount experiences even a one percent swing in value. Given thepossibility of losing one's entire investment, speculation inthe foreign exchange market should only be conducted with riskcapital funds that, if lost, will not significantly affect theinvestors financial well-being.
