Foreign Exchange

Foreign Exchange trading is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. The Foreign Exchange Market (Forex or FX) is the largest financial market in the world with a daily turnover of over $2.6 trillion. Examples of currency trading pairs are Euro/US Dollar (EUR/USD) and US Dollar/Japanese Yen (USD/JPY). Most currency transactions involve the "Majors" - US Dollar, Euro, Japanese Yen, British Pound, Swiss Franc, Canadian Dollar and Australian Dollar.Unlike most financial markets, the foreign exchange market has no physical location and no central exchange. The Forex market operates 24 hours a day through an electronic network of banks, corporations and individual traders. Forex trading begins every day in Sydney, then moves to Tokyo, followed by London and then New York. The major market makers, or dealers, consist of the commercial and investment banks, the exchange traded futures, and registered futures commission merchants (FCMs) such as Forex N Trading. Forex N Trading ' dealing desk is open 24-hours a day from Sunday.
