Forex, the short form of foreign exchange, is a one-of-a-kind financial market where traders make profit from buying and selling foreign currencies. With the change in the demand and supply scenario, the exchange rates of foreign currencies also undergo changes in value. The currency of any country can influence the economy, politics and nature of the country. The shifting value of the US dollar is no exception to this principle. Using the well-known profit-making principle of ‘buy cheap, sell high’, Forex traders take advantage of the value fluctuations in foreign currencies. Forex is a class on its own, compared to other financial systems of the world. It is perhaps the only market which is influenced by a large number of factors and is accessible to individuals as well as corporate traders. It is also a market which claims the highest turnover and is responsible for creating enviable liquidity of the currencies that are traded. The Forex market never closes. It is open 24×7 every day of the year and this allows traders to do business any time of the day even when the local markets in their own country is closed due to national holidays, etc. Business can also be done beyond the usual business hours, as the international market always open.
