FOREX, trading foreign currency

FOREX trading is all about trading foreign currency, stocks, and
similar type of products. The currency of one country is weighed
against the currency of another country to determine value. The value
of that foreign currency is taken into consideration when trading
stocks on the FOREX markets. Most countries have control over the
value of that countries value, involving the currency, or money. Those
who are often involved in the FOREX markets include banks, large
businesses, governments, and financial institutions.

What makes the FOREX market different from the stock market?
A forex market trade is one that involves at least two countries, and
it can take place worldwide. The two countries are one, with the
investor, and two, the country the money is being invested in. Most
all transactions taking place in the FOREX market are going to take
place through a broker, such as a bank.

What really makes up the FOREX markets?
The foreign exchange market is made up of a variety of transactions
and counties. Those involved in the FOREX market are trading in large
volumes, large amounts of money. Those who are involved in the FOREX
market are generally involved in cash businesses, or in the trade of
very liquid assets that you can sell and buy fast. The market is
large, very large. You could consider the FOREX market to be much
larger than the stock market in any one country overall. Those
involved in the FOREX market are trading daily twenty-four hours a day
and sometimes trading is completed on the weekend, but not all
weekends.

You might be surprised at the number of people that are involved in
FOREX trading. In the years 2004, almost two trillion dollars was an
average daily trading volume. This is a huge number for the number of
daily transactions to take place. Think about how much a trillion
dollars really is and then times that by two, and this is the money
that is changing hands every day!

The FOREX market is not something new, but has been used for over
thirty years. With the introduction of computers, and then the
internet, the trading on the FOREX market continues to grow as more
and more people and businesses alike become aware of the availablily
of this trading market. FOREX only accounts for about ten percent of
the total trading from country to country, but as the popularity in
this market continues to grow so could that number.
