Never heard of Forex?
The Foreign Exchange Market is the world's largest financial market, trading nearly 3 trillion dollars daily. Traders on this market are able to buy, sell, exchange and speculate on currencies.
What's so special about Forex?
The Forex market has many advantages you won't find on any other market. It offers the highest liquidity, the highest leverage, and is the most lucrative. Trade whenever you'd like, as the market's opened 24 hours a day.
How does it work?
Here's a look at today's Forex market [click to see]. Note the price fluctuations. If you buy low and sell high, you make profits. If the market moves against you, then you incur losses. Unlike the stock market, when one currency goes down, there's always another currency going up, making Forex attractive to banks and hedge funds, business and retail investors.
How do I know what currencies to buy or sell?
When dealing with any market, there are two general approaches traders use to estimate how the market will move. The first, technical analysis, focuses on price patterns and uses charting tools to discover them. The second, fundamental analysis, accredits price fluctuations as being a product of economic and political events. Learn more with our free "Intro to Forex" video posted above.
How does leverage work?
Leverage enhances your profit potential while also increasing your risk of loss. With a leverage of 100:1, you are allowed to purchase up to 100 units of another currency with just 1 dollar. Click here to learn more about leverage.
Sounds exciting. How much should I start with?
The minimum deposit to start trading live at Forex Club is $10. However, $10 won't get you far. Even if you are a great trader, an account this small won't yield more than several dollars a day. If you are aiming for greater results, consider starting with a larger account. We recommend starting with $500. This will gain you access to Autochartist, a chart analysis service that identifies quality trading opportunities and emerging trends in real-time.
I want in. Where do I sign up?
Getting started with Forex has never been easier. All you need is a computer, an Internet connection and a program called Trading Platform. Install the trading platform on your computer and try Forex trading with 5,000 virtual dollars

An overview of the Forex marke

|





The Forex market is a non-stop cash market where currencies of nations are traded, typically via brokers. Foreign currencies are constantly and simultaneously bought and sold across local and global markets and traders' investments increase or decrease in value based upon currency movements. Foreign exchange market conditions can change at any time in response to real-time events.

The main enticements of currency dealing to private investors and attractions for short-term Forex trading are:

* 24-hour trading, 5 days a week with non-stop access to global Forex dealers.
* An enormous liquid market making it easy to trade most currencies.
* Volatile markets offering profit opportunities.
* Standard instruments for controlling risk exposure.
* The ability to profit in rising or falling markets.
* Leveraged trading with low margin requirements.
* Many options for zero commission trading.


Forex trading
The investor's goal in Forex trading is to profit from foreign currency movements. Forex trading or currency trading is always done in currency pairs. For example, the exchange rate of EUR/USD on Aug 26th, 2003 was 1.0857. This number is also referred to as a "Forex rate" or just "rate" for short. If the investor had bought 1000 euros on that date, he would have paid 1085.70 U.S. dollars. One year later, the Forex rate was 1.2083, which means that the value of the euro (the numerator of the EUR/USD ratio) increased in relation to the U.S. dollar. The investor could now sell the 1000 euros in order to receive 1208.30 dollars. Therefore, the investor would have USD 122.60 more than what he had started one year earlier. However, to know if the investor made a good investment, one needs to compare this investment option to alternative investments. At the very minimum, the return on investment (ROI) should be compared to the return on a "risk-free" investment. One example of a risk-free investment is long-term U.S. government bonds since there is practically no chance for a default, i.e. the U.S. government going bankrupt or being unable or unwilling to pay its debt obligation.

When trading currencies, trade only when you expect the currency you are buying to increase in value relative to the currency you are selling. If the currency you are buying does increase in value, you must sell back the other currency in order to lock in a profit. An open trade (also called an open position) is a trade in which a trader has bought or sold a particular currency pair and has not yet sold or bought back the equivalent amount to close the position.

However, it is estimated that anywhere from 70%-90% of the FX market is speculative. In other words, the person or institution that bought or sold the currency has no plan to actually take delivery of the currency in the end; rather, they were solely speculating on the movement of that particular currency
