Forex is an acronym for Foreign Exchange market and it cannot be compared with the common stock exchanges such as Nasdaq and the Tokyo stock exchange. On the Forex market currencies are exchanged between the central bank and brokers. Currencies can be traded in pairs (e.g EUR/USD) this pair expresses the price of the euro in US dollars. As in 1 Euro = 1.3000 USD

Price changes are displayed in pips, so making or losing money depends on pips. For example if you own 100,000 currency pairs and the pip has changed 5 points from 1.3000 to 1.3005 you will earn 50$ (0.0005*100,000) Our advice to the starters is to begin dealing with small pairs.

Forex product prices are generally quoted in two or four decimals points (e.g. €/$ 1.12 or 1.1234). "pip" stands for percentage in point. In order to participate on the Forex market you will need to open an account. Brokers can give you access to the market and they offer different forex account types. If you want to enter the market with real money a minimum deposit of $25 - $25,000 is required.

This week's advice: This week’s advice talks about the best ways to predict value changes. There are a lot of ways to predict the change of a currency against another currency. We advise you to read about the Forex market and become interested in all the subjects that can change the value of currencies. For example, take a look at the financial news every day, If you read that there there’s an increase in the number of jobs available or a decrease in unemployment, there is a high chance that the discussed currency will become more valuable.

Furthermore the currency is connected with the stock exchange market. If the Nasdaq has a good day, the chances are that the Dollar will change accordingly.

Last week:This week we’ll give you some advice about using the promotions that your Forex broker offers. When you are new to Forex trading you will probably come across a lot of promotions where you can get free money to trade with. These bonuses often give you an X percentage of money (based on your initial first deposit) on top of your first deposit. Before you accept one of these bonuses we advise you to check the bonus agreements thoroughly so that you know what the pay-out requirements are.

If you decide to use the bonus and to start trading, we advise you to deposit a high amount. This because the bonus promotions are aimed at new costumers and the higher the first deposit, the higher your bonus will be.
