Forex Market

0 comments
The forex market is open 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. Because of the decentralised clearing of trades and overlap of major markets in Asia, London and the United States, the market remains open and liquid throughout the day and overnight.
The foreign exchange market is the most liquid market in the world eclipsing all others. In comparative terms, daily volumes are more than 40 times that of the Dow Jones Index.
One consistent margin rate 24-hours a day allows forex traders to leverage their capital more efficiently.
No restrictions on type (market, limit or stop orders) or timing of trades.
No restrictions. Very low account balances, due to leverage/margin strategy. Lower client account requirements.
Traditional Market place:
Limited trading hours; trading times restricted to “local” market which decreases the attractiveness of the market for overseas investors.
Threat of limited liquidity, stocks are particularly vulnerable to large price fluctuations in after-hour markets or when trading smaller corporate issues.
Large capital requirements, high margin rates, restrictions on shorting, very little autonomy.
Short selling and stop order restrictions.
Pattern day traders subject to restrictions requiring a substantial amount of cash on account prior to trading.

Unlike a stock market, where all participants have access to the same prices, the foreign exchange market is divided into levels of access. At the top is the inter-bank market, which is made up of the largest commercial banks and securities dealers. Within the inter-bank market, spreads, which are the difference between the bid and ask prices, are razor sharp and usually unavailable, and not known to players outside the inner circle. The difference between the bid and ask prices widens (from 0-1 pip to 1-2 pips for some currencies such as the EUR). This is due to volume. If a trader can guarantee large numbers of transactions for large amounts, they can demand a smaller difference between the bid and ask price, which is referred to as a better spread. The levels of access that make up the foreign exchange market are determined by the size of the "line" (the amount of money with which they are trading). The top-tier inter-bank market accounts for 53% of all transactions. After that there are usually smaller banks, followed by large multi-national corporations (which need to hedge risk and pay employees in different countries), large hedge funds, and even some of the retail FX-metal market makers. According to Galati and Melvin, “Pension funds, insurance companies, mutual funds, and other institutional investors have played an increasingly important role in financial markets in general, and in FX markets in particular, since the early 2000s.” (2004) In addition, he notes, “Hedge funds have grown markedly over the 2001–2004 period in terms of both number and overall size” Central banks also participate in the foreign exchange market to align currencies to their economic needs.

Market size and liquidity of forex

The foreign exchange market is the largest and most liquid financial market in the world. Traders include large banks, central banks, currency speculators, corporations, governments, and other financial institutions. The average daily volume in the global foreign exchange and related markets is continuously growing. Daily turnover was reported to be over US$3.2 trillion in April 2007 by the Bank for International Settlements. [2] Since then, the market has continued to grow. According to Euromoney's annual FX Poll, volumes grew a further 41% between 2007 and 2008.[3]

Of the $3.98 trillion daily global turnover, trading in London accounted for around $1.36 trillion, or 34.1% of the total, making London by far the global center for foreign exchange. In second and third places respectively, trading in New York accounted for 16.6%, and Tokyo accounted for 6.0%.[4] In addition to "traditional" turnover, $2.1 trillion was traded in derivatives.

Exchange-traded FX futures contracts were introduced in 1972 at the Chicago Mercantile Exchange and are actively traded relative to most other futures contracts.

Several other developed countries also permit the trading of FX derivative products (like currency futures and options on currency futures) on their exchanges. All these developed countries already have fully convertible capital accounts. Most emerging countries do not permit FX derivative products on their exchanges in view of prevalent controls on the capital accounts. However, a few select emerging countries (e.g., Korea, South Africa, India—[1]; [2]) have already successfully experimented with the currency futures exchanges, despite having some controls on the capital account.

FX futures volume has grown rapidly in recent years, and accounts for about 7% of the total foreign exchange market volume, according to The Wall Street Journal Europe (5/5/06, p. 20).

FOREX Trading System Software

Forex trading system software is designed to give you an edge when it comes to your Forex trading. The Forex market is dynamic and can be very demanding, so you need the best tools you can get in order to stay on top of it. You’ll find that your trading becomes a lot easier when you use the right Forex trading system software.

Forex trading system software can be divided into two types: desktop software, and web-based software. The one that you choose will depend on your particular situation. Generally speaking, web-based software is best because of its high level of security. But if you don’t have a fast Internet connection speed, then your choice will have to be a desktop version of trading system software.

With desktop software, all of your data is stored on your hard disk, which makes your data vulnerable to viruses and hard disk failure. If your situation requires that you use desktop software, you’ll need to pay particular attention to backups and virus protection on your computer.

If the Forex trading system software you choose is web-based, however, you’re protected by an extra layer of security. No matter which one you choose, it should be hosted on secure servers with 128 bit SSL encryption, to prevent hackers from gaining access to your personal information. Besides the added security, online Forex trading software means that you can access your account from any computer that has an Internet connection. This aspect is especially useful if you travel a lot.

An important feature that any online Forex trading system software should include is 24-hour support and maintenance. Because Forex trading is a round the clock market, if your session is cut short for any reason or if you run into any technical problems, you want to know that you can reach someone who can help you at any hour of the day.

Other things you’ll want to research are the downtime record of the company you’re considering, and their internal security system. Reputable companies that provide Forex trading system software will probably have a solid record of online availability, but to be thorough you should verify this. Also ask about their daily backup protocol, and find out what checks and balances they have in place to ensure that their servers can only be accessed by their employees.

The Forex trading system software you use is an important factor to your ultimate success in Forex trading. Make sure that the one you choose has at least the basic features outlined here, and that it will also work with your trading platform.

Forex 4 Pack - Bill Poulos spent the last few weeks making updates to what is probably his most popular Forex training material - the “Forex 4-Pack”.
This report is now 100 pages and it has more actionable Forex tactics than many courses you have to PAY FOR. A lot of folks ask me why he gives away so much high-value Forex material. After all, he could be charging for this.
The reason he does this is simple: He wants to prove to you that trading Forex doesn’t have to complicated, and he also wants to give you a chance to experience his style of teaching.
Most of you may know or have heard of Bill Poulos, a thirty+ year ‘veteran’ of the financial markets. Bill Poulos has been trading the markets since 1974. What separates Bill Poulos from other ‘to-be gurus’ is that he began as a trader and has learned the hard lessons himself and developed the discipline that’s necessary to be profitable on a sustained basis.
In his over 30 years of trading experience, Bill has developed dozens of trading systems and methods. Bill Poulos is the creator of Instant Profits, the Quantum Swing Trader, and most recently the Forex Profit Accelerator. His products come highly recommended and his systems are based on a solid understanding of the market.
He prides himself on providing honest and realistic trading education, and is known for the continuous and ongoing support and follow-up he offers his students. So I am sure that Bill will have no objections if I share this information with you. Here’s the link to: Stop Day Trading Forex - Spend Less Time, Get More Pips.

Forex Scam

0 comments

A forex (or foreign exchange) scam is any trading scheme used to defraud traders by convincing them that they can expect to gain a high profit by trading in the foreign exchange market. Currency trading "has become the fraud du jour" as of early 2008, according to Michael Dunn of the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission. [1] But "the market has long been plagued by swindlers preying on the gullible," according to the New York Times [2]. "The average individual foreign-exchange-trading victim loses about $15,000, according to CFTC records" according to The Wall Street Journal. [3] The North American Securities Administrators Association says that "off-exchange forex trading by retail investors is at best extremely risky, and at worst, outright fraud." [4]

“In a typical case, investors may be promised tens of thousands of dollars in profits in just a few weeks or months, with an initial investment of only $5,000. Often, the investor’s money is never actually placed in the market through a legitimate dealer, but simply diverted – stolen – for the personal benefit of the con artists.”[5]

In August, 2008 the CFTC set up a special task force to deal with growing foreign exchange fraud.”[6]

The forex market is a zero-sum game[7] , meaning that whatever one trader gains, another loses, except that brokerage commissions and other transaction costs are subtracted from the results of all traders, technically making forex a "negative-sum" game.

These scams might include churning of customer accounts for the purpose of generating commissions, selling software that is supposed to guide the customer to large profits, [8] improperly managed "managed accounts", [9] false advertising, [10] Ponzi schemes and outright fraud. [4] [11] It also refers to any retail forex broker who indicates that trading foreign exchange is a low risk, high profit investment. [12]

The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), which loosely regulates the foreign exchange market in the United States, has noted an increase in the amount of unscrupulous activity in the non-bank foreign exchange industry.[13]

An official of the National Futures Association was quoted [14] as saying, "Retail forex trading has increased dramatically over the past few years. Unfortunately, the amount of forex fraud has also increased dramatically..." Between 2001 and 2006 the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission has prosecuted more than 80 cases involving the defrauding of more than 23,000 customers who lost $350 million. From 2001 to 2007, about 26,000 people lost $460 million in forex frauds. [1] CNN quoted Godfried De Vidts, President of the Financial Markets Association, a European body, as saying, "Banks have a duty to protect their customers and they should make sure customers understand what they are doing. Now if people go online, on non-bank portals, how is this control being done?"

From ancient times, people have been engaged in different types of businesses. Buying, and selling of commodities, is still the backbone of any business. Businesses have not only provided bread and butter to generations but have also helped build many great nations.

Trading is also one of the very old ways of doing business. Long ago, people traded goods for other goods. Later on, goods were traded for services and services were traded for money.

Forex trading is just one of the many forms of trading business. Simply put, forex trading is the trading of different currencies in the world. Known as the largest financial market in the world, forex trading is the least regulated market which provides absolute liquidity to most investors.

In the beginning forex trading seems very easy. But in reality, it’s quite difficult. To make money in forex trading, you should be able to buy currencies at a cheaper rate and sell them later at a higher rate. If you don’t have proper knowledge about it, you will lose a whole lot of money.

To become a pro in forex trading, you will need to learn the basics and then practice with some advanced learning tools. If you do it right, it won’t be long when you will become a master.

There are many forex trading courses that you can choose from. They vary not only by the content but also by the audience type. For example, you can choose to attend a forex trading class traditionally (inside the classroom) or online over Internet. There are courses designed for beginners, intermediate level and even for professional traders.

Whichever course you choose, you will definitely learn more and benefit from it. Practicing what you learn is also important. Although the actual trading requires additional expenses on your part, the amount that you’ll be spending will be doubled or even tripled once you do your actual forex trade.

Trading courses offered to the new forex traders teaches all the basic principles and aspects of forex trading. There are many institutions which offer the latest software and tools used in forex trading. Apart from detail on forex trading, many institutions educate the first time traders about the difference between equities and forex trading. They show how the pros make use of different instruments when doing the actual trade, which helps the beginner to choose the best possible instrument.

Since trading in forex goes on across the world, you can actually engage in forex trading twenty four hours a day and six days a week. You can just imagine how much money you can make in very little time; but this can only be realized if you attend forex trading courses.

Some new traders initially enjoy and benefit from forex trading even without attending any proper course. But in due time, they realize that they can lose a lot of money if they don’t seek professional help. As you can guess, a little help from outside can prove to be very useful.

Forex trading requires a lot of knowledge about the market itself, and if you hardly have any knowledge about it, you’re in big trouble. People who want to engage in business naturally want to make money, and to achieve that in forex trading, you must have a good grip of the different aspects of the trade.

One of the very important traits in doing forex trading is discipline. It’s not enough to have your own plan; you also need to stick to it at all times. With the help of adequate technical tools, you can go a very long way.

It would be wise to find a course in physical offices so that you can get the most professional and comprehensive learning experience. Check if they also offer study materials to be used at home. The opportunity brought about by the different courses offered in the market is infinite, and any trader can highly benefit from it.

Many forex trading courses allow you to have training with real quotes and data. You can learn the proper skills in risk management, and how you to preserve your capital. You will know how to make your very own business plan, and you will be able to improve on you plan as per your instructor’s comments.

Instructors of such courses are among the best; they have all the experience and knowledge about the trade. Almost any physical office which offers forex trading courses allows their students to do networking, which means they can have alliances and collaborations outside the four walls of the classroom.

To enroll yourself into any trading course requires background study and careful evaluation of the trading institution that provides the course. You can always ask your friends and colleagues who are already into forex trading about good forex trading course institutions. Or you can do some research online in case you want to attend classes on the Internet.

Introduction to Forex Trading

0 comments

If you are a beginner at Forex trading then you must know that Forex is art and science, and, you have a really good advantage these days because with just a few things they can learn a lot about currency exchange. They also must know that there are many risks involved in these kinds of markets and they must be prepared to lose money and must use the "risk capital" in these foreign exchange markets.

You must begin from knowing the basics of Forex and also must be aware that this is different from stock trading, this market has more volatility. You must study the movements of the currency pairs before anything and these currency pairs can be EUR/USD and others. You must also analyze any trends that might be involved any currency that we are exchanging.

There are some essential tips on how to avoid typical pitfalls and start making more money in your forex trading:

1. Trade pairs, not currency - Like any relationship, you have to know the both sides i.e. Success and failure, these terms in forex trading depends upon being right about both currencies and how they impact one and another, not just one.

2. Knowledge is a key to power - When starting out trading forex online, it is essential that you understand the basics of this market if you want to make the maximum of your investments. For forex trading main influencer is global news and events and so one should keep the track of these news.

3. Independence – You have to decide that either you want to trade to your own money or to have a broker trade it for. For this, you need to seek advice from too many sources as multiple-input will result in multiple losses.

4. No strategy - A strategy is a map for how you plan to make money work for you. And without a strategy, you may become one of the 90% of new traders that lose their money.

5. Pace yourself and be realistic - There are traders who make millions quickly, but that's not the norm and if you can make these sort of gains you will soon be very wealthy.

6. Don't over leverage - Start slowly and deal in small sizes. To win you just need to have great defense and then let your offence make you profits.

7. Useful trading, not small trading - Many new traders place very tight orders in order to take very small profits but be clear that this is not a sustainable approach because although you may be profitable in the short run if you are lucky but, you risk losing in the longer term as you have to recover the difference between the bid and the ask price before that you can make any profit and this is much more difficult when you make small trades than when you make larger one

Methods of Forecasting

0 comments

Businesses which are involved in global trading need to be in a position to predict forex market behavior. This is essential for them when concluding deals / arranging for payments to protect themselves from the possible adverse outcomes of forex market behavior or gain from the situation. Being a complex exercise, guess work is not a tool at all and one has to use a scientific basis to predict forex market behavior.

This article on the forecast of behavior of the Forex Market will educate you on two methods of analysis. Though, both of them (Technical and Fundamental analysis) have vast difference between their approaches, their goal is the same. They are very effective in predicting the rise, movement or price of the forex market behavior and/or trends. To get the best outcome, fundamentalists suggest combining both of them for better results.

Primarily, there are 2 methods of predicting forex market behavior / trends:

Technical Analysis
Fundamental Analysis
There is no judgment possible on which of the above 2 methods is more reliable. They vary in their approaches and use different parameters to predict the price or a price movement. In essence, we can say that while a Technical analyst will focus on what will be the outcome i.e. the price or the movement expected, a Fundamental Analyst will lay emphasis on the "Why" of the price or the movement expected. A Technical Analyst would believe that over and above the fundamental analysis, certain other factors need to be taken into account before coming to a conclusion. A judicious mix of the two approaches is what is really sound as it is important to know the cause and also the effect i.e. the price or the movement expected taking into account all factors affecting it.

Let's try and understand how these two approaches work:

Technical Analysis:

The method focuses on understanding the prevailing market trends and tries to pinpoint any reversal of this trend and predict how the forex market is likely to behave in the future. It is more statistical in nature in the sense that this method relies heavily on historical data on prices and volumes traded and using charts to understand and interpret the behavior. Many tools are available for making such analysis like Indicators, Number Theory, Waves, Gaps, and Trends etc.

A technical analyst prefers not to waste his time on finding out how the market ought to have behaved and why it did not - he would look at only what has happened and what is the take-out from that behavior. This method believes that the historical movements of the prices do tell a story that needs to be understood.

This method also believes that such study of price movements is more useful when we are talking about a situation where price movements are caused by free market situation i.e. where demand and supply situation determine the rate and not where exchange rates are fixed artificially. (Malaysian Ringgit ( MR) was once pegged to the United Stated Dollar (USD) by the Malaysian Government at 3.76 MR to a USD). On top of all this, this method tries to understand the "market sentiment" or the emotional reaction of the market as opposed to the sentiments of the individual participants in the market.

In essence, Technical Analysis is underscored by three basic assumptions:

That the market discounts everything: that is to say all the happenings in the economy - let's say global economy - be they political events, statements by economic gurus , security situation, crop failures or the collapse of a bank - everything affects the forex market and has affected the prices prevailing in the market.
Prices move in trends: which means that there is a pattern always to the price movements which need to be studied and that they do tell us something about the existing trends and allow us to make a prediction.
History repeats itself: that is, mass thinking does not change dramatically over periods of time and the "wave" of mass psychological thinking moves in a familiar pattern. Only, the same needs to be understood and applied in practice.
Fundamental Analysis:

As the name suggests, this method of analysis focuses on the "fundamental" factors that are known to affect / ought to be affecting forex market rates. This method therefore is a bit traditional in approach and is typically theoretical in nature. For instance, typically, a Fundamental Analyst when asked to predict the forex market rates, would look at existing and expected interest rates, GDP growth rates, inflationary trends, weather changes affecting agricultural output, international trade balances, exchange rate policies of the countries involved , capital market status etc. before saying "I believe given these indicators, the forex market ought to be behaving this way" and would conclude whether a currency is likely to appreciate or depreciate vis- a- vis the other one. Not surprisingly, when the market rate determined is at variance with the prediction, a fundamental analyst looks flummoxed.

This kind of analysis fails to take into account that there is also something called market sentiment - simply because such a factor is not "fundamental" to the analysis because it is not predictable and not driven by rationale.

Conclusion:

Having understood both the approaches, we can only say that both methods have their own merits and demerits.

However, smart forex market operators prefer to use a good mix of these 2 methods, apply their own judgment and take calls on how the market is likely to behave and take actions as deemed fit for their business.

Electronic settlement
What to bear in mind for electronic settlement:
For remote data transmission with Cotransfer, the only thing you need besides a PC with a modem or an ISDN card is software for the exchange or transmission of payment transaction files. Basically any software can be used that meets the uniform standards of the German credit services sector. Commerzbank recommends COTEL, because thanks to the electronic signature, this Commerzbank software also offers the best possible security on the basis of the latest recognised data protection standards of electronic payment transactions. In addition, with COTEL, you can transfer not just data, but also domestic and foreign payments in the formats of the German credit services sector.
Accessing the Corporate Banking portal without software
COTRANSFER is even easier to use via the Corporate Banking portal, which has everything you need for payment transactions. You no longer have to think about using the appropriate software, as the only thing you need to access Commerzbank’s electronic payment transactions is a PC with Internet access and an updated browser. Payment orders with both applications companydirect and PAYMENT can be immediately processed. It is also no problem to connect a data service centre you have entrusted with settling your payment transactions.

What is Fundamental Analysis ?

0 comments

Fundamentals are associated with the economic health of a company, measured in terms of revenues, earnings, assets, liabilities, Return on Equity (ROE), Return on Assets (ROA), Return on Investments (ROI), growth prospects and cash flows, etc. The fundamentals tell you about a company. You can say a company is having robust fundamentals if it is growing at a nice pace, generating a profit, has limited debts and abundant cash.

The analysis of a company's fundamentals involves getting deep into its financials, rather than day-to-day movement in its share price. Equity researchers normally do fundamental analysis in order to calculate the intrinsic value of a company's stock. If a company's stock is trading above the intrinsic value or fair value, then the stock is overvalued. If a company's stock is trading below the intrinsic value, then the stock is undervalued. However, if you watch the stock markets very closely, the share price of most companies never matches the fair value. Often, day traders and investors who would prefer short term investment options invest in those stocks, regardless of the companies' long term growth prospects. However, long term investors generally prefer to invest in companies with robust fundamentals and ignore near-term share price movements.

How do I trade Forex?

0 comments
You select the pair of currencies with which you wish to make a Forex deal. You determine the volume (the amount of the deal). You deposit the "margin" (collateral needed to facilitate the deal. Usually - only a very small portion of the whole deal, say: 1% or 1:100).

Before you finally activate the deal, you can still "freeze" it for a few seconds. That enables you to either change the terms, or accept it as is, or altogether regret the whole idea. The "freeze" feature is a unique service by Easy-Forex™.

When your Forex deal is running (you hold an "open position"), you can monitor its status and check scenarios online, whenever you wish. You may change some terms in the deal, or close it (and cash the profit, if any, or minimize the loss, if any). Moreover, Easy-Forex™ lets you determine a "take-profit" rate, with which the deal will close automatically for you, when and if such rate occurs in the market. Meaning: you do not have to stay near your computer when you hold open positions.

Forex? What is it, anyway?

0 comments
The currency trading (FOREX) market is the biggest and the fastest growing market on earth. Its daily turnover is more than 2.5 trillion dollars, which is 100 times greater than the NASDAQ daily turnover. (click here to read full market background by Easy-Forex™).

Markets are places to trade goods. The same goes with FOREX. The Forex goods (or merchandise) are the currencies of various countries. You buy Euro, paying with US dollars, or you sell Japanese Yens for Canadian dollars. That's all.

How does one profit in Forex?

Very simple and obvious: buy cheap and sell for more! The profit is generated from the fluctuations (changes) in the currency exchange market.

The nice thing about the FOREX market, is that regular daily fluctuations, say - around 1%, are multiplied by 100! (in general, Easy-Forex™ offers trading ratios from 1:50 to 1:200). If, for example, the exchange rate of "your" pair of currencies increased by 0.6% in the last 4 hours, your profit will be 60% on your investment! Such can happen in one business day, or in a few hours, even minutes.

Moreover, you cannot lose more than your "margin"! You may profit unlimited amounts, but you never lose more than what you initially risked and invested.

You can implement your choice (the pair of currencies, the volume amount) under any direction to which the market is moving, and yet make profit. It does not matter whether the exchange rate is going up or down: you can always decide to buy Euro and sell dollar, or vice versa - buy dollar and sell Euro. You don't have to physically possess certain currencies in order to perform "buy" or "sell" with them.

Contracts on Forex market within the IFC Markets are performed due to SPOT conditions. A spot transaction is a straightforward (or outright) exchange of one currency for another. The spot rate is the current market price or 'cash' rate. Spot transactions do not require immediate settlement, or payment 'on the spot'. By convention, the settlement date, or value date, is the second business day after the deal date on which the transaction is made by the two party.

Forex Training and Fibonacci Studies

0 comments
Forex training will require the understanding of Fibonacci. Fibonacci numbers are a series of numbers whereby each succeeding number is added to the sum of the previous two numbers. For example, a Fibonacci scale would be: 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, etc… There are several interesting relationships within this succession of numbers, such as the fact that any number on the Fibonacci scale is roughly 1.618 times the number listed previously in the succession. This numerical study is named after Leonardo of Pisa, who is credited for its discovery.

Leonardo was born in Pisa, Italy in 1170 A.D. to Alessandra, his mother who died when he was nine years old, and Guglielmo, his father who was nicknamed “Bonaccio”, meaning “good natured”). It wasn’t until after he died that Leonard was given the nickname Fibonacci, which was derived from filius Bonacci, which means “son of Bonaccio”.

Growing up with a father who ran the trading post of Pisa, Leonard traveled a lot with his father to North Africa. It was there that he learned the Hindu-Arabic numerical system. Leonardo seemed to be a natural with numbers and quickly realized that the Hindu-Arabic system was easier to use and far more efficient than the Roman numerals he had been taught. Leonardo traveled extensively throughout the Mediterranean region studying under the foremost Arab mathematicians of his time. Upon his return at the age of 32, he published his findings in Liber Abaci, thus introducing the Western World to the Hindu-Arabic numerical system.
