WHAT IS FOREX?
The foreign exchange, or forex market is a “place” where different currencies are exchanged and traded.
In the free market economy, each country’s currency is measured according to supply and demand factors. The need for people, governments and institutions to exchange currencies every day is the reason why the forex market is the largest and most liquid financial market in the world.
In fact, according to the Bank for International Settlements Triennial Central Bank Survey of foreign exchange and OTC derivative markets in 2016, trading in forex markets averaged $5.1 trillion per day in April 2016.
One of the main advantages of forex trading is that there is no need of a central market place and currency trading is conducted electronically “over-the-counter”. The market is open 24 hours a day, 5 days a week from the open in south-east Asia on Monday to the close in New York on Friday afternoon.
