Introduction to Forex Trading

Forex Trading in lament terms is trading currencies on the Foreign Exchange Market. People in every country around the world need foreign currencies in order to conduct foreign trade and business. If you are in South Africa and want to buy cheese from France, you have to pay the French distributor in Euros and not South African Rands. This means, that the South African importer has to exchange the equivalent value of the Rand into Euros.

The same applies for people that travel around the world a lot. Travellers have to exchange their currency into the country’s locally accepted currency at the current exchange rate. The demand of foreign currencies is the main reason why the foreign market is the largest most liquid financial market in the world.

The Foreign Exchange market is larger than any other market in size. There is no central marketplace for foreign exchange and this makes it unique compared to any other market. Forex trading is done electronically over-the-counter (OTC). This simply means that all transaction occur on a device such as a laptop, mobile phone or tablet via networks between traders that are based all around the world. The Foreign Exchange Market is opened 24 hours a day and currencies are traded worldwide across almost every time zone.
