Forex Trading on Blogger!

Forex Trading is a Blogger blog dedicated to foreign currency exchange trading, or FX trading.

The forex market is by far the largest trading market in the world, and dwarfs "traditional" stocks and commodities markets . Total daily trades currently average over $3 trillion - that's $3,000,000,000,000 or a 3 with twelve zero's after it!

Trading in foreign currencies is highly speculative. Unlike the more traditional more common stock markets which trade through a central exchange, Forex trades on the interbank market. This is an over-the-counter or OTC market where each trade takes place directly between the buyer and the seller.

The Fx market revolves around US currency, which is normally considered the 'base' currency for quotes. In the "Majors", this includes USD/JPY, USD/CHF and USD/CAD. For this and most other currencies, quotes are expressed as a unit of $1 USD per the second currency quoted in the pair. For example, a quote of USD/JPY 110.01 means that one U.S. dollar is equal to 110.01 Japanese yen.

The forex trading market can move in an instant, and because there are some many factors that can be taken into account when making trade decisions, most traders use forex signals to aggregate their data.
