About Forex
So how does it work? Well basically, you first need to know that the values of currencies change A LOT every day. This is why more than $4 Trillion are traded daily in that market. To trade on this market, you need to trade currency pairs, for example, if I buy USD/CAD, I am in fact buying US dollars by borrowing Canadian Dollars. In that example, I will hope that the US dollar climbs or that the Canadian Dollar falls in order to make profit. Still don’t understand? That’s alright, I’ll give you another example. This is very similar to going into a bank and asking for US dollar in exchange of Canadian Dollars, waiting for the price of the US dollar to climb and going back in the bank and exchanging your US dollars for Canadian Dollars. The only difference is that in banks, the exchange rates are a total rip-off, and you can’t trade as fast as on the Forex market.
People on the forex market trade on the 4th decimal (for major currencies). That means that if the price of the USD/CAD goes from 1.6050 to 1.6065, I make 15 points (assuming that I am buying USD/CAD).
