How Much Does The Financial Crises Effect The FX Currency Trading Markets?

Global Economy, Foreign Currency Exchange, and the FX Currency Trading Market

The current financial crises has long since spread beyond just the US, and now effects the currencies of countries in Europe, Asia, and elsewhere.

The Forex marketplace is comprised of foreign currency pairs, so anything that effects these currencies can effect the FX trading market.

Of course, daytraders can often profit from even mild fluctuations in currency markets. But these opportunities may actually be counter-productive in that the waves occurring through the global Forex marketplace might be too steep.

This can make even relatively "safe" day trading FX investments risk, or at least riskier due to the depth and frequency, or dips in the global economy.
If you are a FX currency trader, you may have felt the impact. Or perhaps the foreign exchange markets are immune.

This is the question: if you do mostly Forex currency trading, you know whether the global financial turmoil has effected your trading. If you aren't a trader, what are your throughts?
