How Does Forex Trading Work? 

The forex trading market is similar to the stock market. It also has some specific prerequisite that makes trading complicated. For instance, traders, instead of purchasing currencies and waiting for their prices to rise, need to select currency pairs. Traders use the best forex trading platform

Some of the Popular currency pairs, including the US dollar, are: 

  • USD/YEN (Janpanese Yen)

  • USD/EUR (Euro)

  • USD/GBP (Great Britain Pound Sterling)

  • USD/CHF (Swiss Franc)

  • USD/AUS (Australian Dollar)

  • USD/CAD (Canadian Dollar) 

Forex trading is purely speculative by nature. Once a trader has chosen a currency pair, they forecast how much one currency they can buy using the other currency in the pair. 

For instance, if an investor buys a USD/AUS, they speculate that they can buy more Australian dollars now at a lower price with USD than they could buy in the future. If the price of the Australian Dollar rises, the trader can make a profit. If the price falls, the trader incurs a loss.
