The Forex Market
For the last three decades Foreign Exchange
market, - briefly Forex or FX, had integrated into
the world's biggest financial market. The volume
of daily transactions is about 1-3 trillion of US
dollars. The trading instruments on this market
are the currencies of different countries, so the
fluctuation of currency's rates allows to gain a
real profit.
Of course monetary assets of different countries
exchanged since the term money appeared as well as
an idea to obtain profit from currency's rates
difference. Now it is not a new idea, but the
transformation of foreign exchange market to the
modern stage with an opportunity to conduct
conversional operations of such volumes arose only
after an introduction of floating rates regime by
the state-members of IMF. Within this regime's
framework the rate of one currency to another is
defining only by the supply and demand on the
market.
Presently Forex market is a global
telecommunication network of banks and different
financial organizations. It does not have any
fixed trading place and time restrictions - the
trade starts on Monday morning in New Zealand and
closes on Friday evening in USA
The advantages of Forex market are:
Round-the-clock trading access:
the ability to trade for 24 hours a day;
Liquidity: the market works with
a huge money and gives the customers complete
freedom to open or close their position of
different volume;
Leverage: an ability to use
leverage. It decreases requirements to the sum of
the initial deposit (margin trade). So in case you
deposit 10 000 USD into your account you'd have an
opportunity to work with 1 000 000 USD (leverage
1:100);
Objectivity: no exterior
regulated structures, so the currency's rate is
establishing in accordance with current supply and
demand on the market;
Globality: everyone can become a
market participant irrespective to the living
place, as trading requires only your skills and
Internet access.
At present mostly all the operations on the market
are conducting only to obtain profit. With the
development of Internet and other means of
communication this sector of the financial markets
becomes more accessible and attractive for the
investors of different levels.
