Whether you plan to trade on the forex (Foreign exchange) market or in the stock market you will need to have some knowledge on two basic forms of analysis: fundamental analysis and technical analysis. Traders of foreign exchange commonly favor Forex trading systems. Interest rate news has a direct impact on the international financial markets. Forex trading increased by 38% between April 2005 and April 2006 and has more than doubled since 2001.
A market order is an order to buy or sell at the current marketplace price. Forex has no central market place for traders and no standard in foreign currency exchanges. Remember that economic indicators gauge a country’s economic state, changes in the conditions reported will directly affect the price and volume of a country’s currency. A country's economic fitness is directly measured by economic reports.
Economic reports such as those on unemployment numbers and housing statistics are used as fundamental indicators. It is recommended that traders who wish to trade in the Forex market only deal with authorized currency traders. There is little or no 'inside information' in the forex markets.
A Foreign exchange broker is paid according to the spread or the difference between the trader's bid for a currency, and the seller's asking price for that currency. A broker is any person or firm that charges a fee in exchange for executing trades for a trader. A Forex broker does not charge a commission for placing a buy or a sell order the way a real estate broker would charge a percentage fee of the total price of a sale. Different dealers offer very different deals to their customers. A good Forex brokerage firm should offer real-time charts, technical analysis tools, real-time trade alerts and website support.
The Forex can be broken up into three major trading sessions: the Tokyo Session, the London Session, and the U.S. Session. You can trade 24-hours a day in the largest and most liquid marketplace in the world.
Fundamental analysis in the Foreign exchange is the economic conditions and the affect those conditions have on a nation’s currency. When a country raises its interest rate, that country’s currency strengthens relative to other currencies. Interest rate news has a direct impact on the international financial markets.
Supply and demand for any given currency, and thus its value, are not influenced by any single element, but rather by several. A currency may sometimes strengthen when inflation rises because of expectations that the central bank will raise short-term interest rates to combat rising inflation.
