What is Forex Trading?

Forex, or Foreign Exchange, is the simultaneous exchange of one country's currency for that of another.

The way it works is an investor who wishes to purchase or sell one currency for another with the hope of making a profit when the value of the currencies change in favor of the investor. This can happen either from market news, or events that happen across the globe. For example, If you bought currency and the price appreciates in value, then you will earn a profit by closing your position. When you do this and sell the currency back in order to lock in the profit, you are in actuality buying the counter currency in the pair. By trading currency pairs, one currency valued against another, a rate of worth has been established. The reason is because a country's currency has value only relative to the currency of another country.

There are many different tools that can help a Forex trader out. Advanced charting programs are a major tool, as well as the FOREX traders guide. Along with these tools, global interactive training rooms with live video feeds, and the daily world bank FOREX report help investors get the most out of FOREX trading.
