Spot market : Where currency is bought and sold at the on going market rate.

Exchange rate : The term used when mentioning the difference between two currencies. For example if USD/CAD is 1.077 then that means 1 American dollar is equal to 1.077 Canadian dollars.

Learning Forex Trade

Saturday, September 5th, 2009

You can learn forex as fast as you can learn other subjects such as science, physics and biology. You dont need to be a nasa scientist to understand FOREX. Though there is no pre-requisite but it helps if you are good with numbers if you wish to learn forex. You can learn forex by means of books and study material, forex articles available on the internet. The best way in learning forex after going through the books and articles is to get guidance from an experience Forex pro because ultimately it is just an exchange of currencies in the market which are bought and sold by the forex traders.

While dealing in forex you have to remeber that there are some currencies which are considered major which are considered to be most liquid. These currencies are :

  • American Dollar
  • Yen (Japan)
  • Euro (Currency of the European Union)
  • Pound
  • Swiss Franc
  • Canadian Dollar
  • Australian Dollar.
  • New Zealand Dollar
  • Ofcourse there are other currencies but they are not so liquid in the market. The best thing about the forex market is that it is a 24hr market except for weekend.

    Some points you should not forget while learning forex :

  • Forex market is 24 hour market unlike local trading of shares.
  • It involves Buying and selling of currencies.
  • This market does not need an Einsten to understand it – Forex market operates just like most other markets and if you have some knowledge of stock market then it becomes much easier for you to make the shift.
  • Best way to learn forex is by starting your virtual account. First lessons teaches you to trade currencies in pairs like :

    Australian dollar vs. U.S. dollar (AUD/USD)
    Euro vs. U.S. dollar (EUR/USD)
    New Zealand dollar vs. U.S. dollar (NZD/USD)
    Pound vs. U.S. dollar (GBP/USD).
    U.S. dollar vs. Swiss franc (USD/CHF)
    U.S. dollar vs. Japanese yen (USD/JPY)
    U.S. dollar vs. Canadian dollar (USD/CAD)

    It is that simple :)

    After you have done setting up your Virtual account make sure to keep the below points in mind :

    1. Choosing the currency pair which is best suited to our needs is very important because some pairs can be very volatile whereas others might not show any movement.
    2. Make a proper time schedule. You wish to spend few minutes or few hours or the whole time in the forex market? You will have to decide yourself the time frame you wish to keep.
    3. Remember forex trading is like any other business. You need to take some risks to have the big gains. If you are new then better to take calculated risks :)
    4. Understand the market conditions properly and make a proper forex analysis before you carry out your deals…

    Happy learning forex…

    Forex Course in Melbourne, Australia?

    Hi all,

    I’m looking to learn the Forex trade but I would like a physical course instead of an online course because first of all, I dont know which one’s a scam and which isn’t (unless someone can tell me of a genuine one).

    Secondly, If i don’t understand something, having someone physical to ask questions would be awesome.

    Would anyone know of places in Melbourne, Australia that offer forex courses?

    Answer

    I was looking for a forex trading online course for my nephew as there isn’t a good course where he was living. So we found this online forex trading course that he is pretty satisfied with. Maybe you can take a look.

    We specially like the Interactive Training Videos. You can get daily answers and questions. We looked at many online forex courses but found this one meets our needs.

    They claim to have trained a lot of students in forex trading. I think this Peter Bain guy is genuine in wanting to teach forex trading.

    The first thing you should do is get familiar about basics of forex trading. You can find a lot of free information online about forex as well as buy some forex trading course (like Peter Bain’s).

Practice with virtual trading for a few months and you will know whether you are capable of making any money from forex, or not.
