Exchange Rate ExampleOne of the most popular currency pairs is the EUR/USD, which tracks the Euro against the U.S. Dollar. If the EUR/USD is at 1.5000, that means one Euro will get you 1.5000 U.S. Dollars. One thing that’s interesting about these exchange rates is that they are relative to two countries. If the Euro gets “stronger”, the rate goes up to 1.5785, for example, because you can buy more Dollars. If the Dollar gets stronger, the rate will drop because the Euro will buy fewer Dollars. However, if both the Euro and the Dollar get stronger (or weaker) by the same amount, the rate won’t really change!
Similar to Stock TradingCurrency trading actually has many similarities to stock trading. Many people are familiar with how stock trading works: find a price quote for a company using its symbol, then buy that symbol at a low price and sell it later at a higher price hopefully. Forex is actually very similar: get a quote for a symbol like EUR/USD, buy it at a lower rate like 1.4000 and then sell it at a higher rate like 1.4050.
Meet the PipSince the exchange rates change by such a small percentage, a term called the pip is used to describe changes in rates or profits. For example, if the GBP/CHF (British Pound versus Swiss Franc) goes from 1.7000 to 1.7001, it has increased by 1 pip, and an increase to 1.7100 would be 100 pips because for this pair one pip is 0.0001. However, for a rate like 95.00 for the USD/JPY, the pip represents 0.01, so 95.01 would be a 1-pip gain while 96.00 would be a 100-pip gain. This just describes the rate differences. To calculate your dollar gains, you need to factor in the lot size (see below).
The Spread instead of a CommissionForex brokers make their profits not by charging a commission on each trade but by creating a small difference between the Bid (Sell) and Ask (Buy) prices. This is called the Spread and it is measured in pips. A typical spread might be between 1 and 10 pips. So if you bought and then sold right away, you would actually lose money by the amount of the spread. For example, buying EUR/USD at 1.5000 (the Ask) and selling at 1.4995 (the Bid) would be a loss of 5 pips.
Lots of LotsStock trading involves buying shares but forex trading involves buying lots. Depending on the account type, the lot size will be something like 1K, 10K, or 100K. Assuming your account has a 10K (10,000) lot size and you buy 8 lots, that would be a total contract size of 80K. It is important to realize that you must place your trades in increments of the lot size.
Margin and LeverageSince currency rates change by such small amounts at a time, most forex brokers offer a large amount of leverage, such as 200 to 1. That means you only use $1 of your actual cash for every $200 of a currency pair that you purchase. For example, if you buy 10K of EUR/USD at 200:1 leverage, that would only require $50 of cash because 10,000 divided by 200 is 50. The purpose of the leverage is to amplify your profits but keep in mind it can just as easily amplify your losses. Many, many traders have lost all of their trading money because of leverage, so be careful!
Practice TradingMany forex websites offer free demo programs that allow you to practice trading with virtual money, often for a limited time. Practicing with these demo programs is highly, highly recommended until you become comfortable with the trading process and the dangers of leverage.Read more: http://foxviet.net/intro-to-forex-currency-trading/#ixzz0OC4sngM1

So what makes the forex market dissimilar from their US counter parts? A forex market transaction is a trade between two countries, and occurs all over the world. The two countries must be 1, the country of the investor of the funds and 2, the country where the finances are being given. Most all transactions taking place in the forex market are going to be qualified through an experienced broker such as a bank.

What is involved in the forex stock exchange? The overseas market is comprised of a mixture of financial exchanges amongst nations. For those invested in the forex exchange are trading in large volumes and huge amounts of money. Those who are involved in the forex market probably have financial businesses or in the trade of very liquid assets that you can sell and buy fast. The market is large, very large and it would not be wrong to imagine the forex stock market as even more immense than an individual market exchange in any one country. Forex traders 365 days per year, twenty-four hours a day is completed on the weekend, but not all weekends.

You might be surprised at the great number of investors who issue trades on the forex exchange. In the year 2004, almost two trillion dollars was the median forex exchange trading volume. This is an immense number of trades with regards to the amount of daily dealings at a time. If you imagine how much a trillion dollars amounts to and multiply that by two, and this figure is the money that is changing hands every day!

The forex exchange has been around for thirty years, but with computers coming into play and the global web, the forex exchange is growing exponentially as growing numbers of investors start to understand the power of the forex market. The forex exchange accounts for only 10% of the sum of all trades between two countries but as its popularity grows so will its number of transactions.

Retail transactions in forex are closed by entering into an equal but opposite transaction with the dealer. For example, if you bought Euros with U.S. dollars, you would close out the deal by selling Euros for U.S. dollars. This is referred to as the offsetting or liquidating transaction.

Most retail forex transactions have a settlement date – date when the said currencies are due to be delivered. If you want to keep your position open even after the settlement date, the position must be rolled over to the next settlement date.

When you close out a trade, profits and losses can be calculated as follows –

Price when selling the base currency minus price when buying the base currency * transaction size = profit or loss.

If you buy Euros (EUR/USD) at 1.4707 and sell Euros at 1.4717 and the transaction size is 100,000 Euros, you will have a $100 profit.

($1.4717 – $1.4707) * 100,000 = $.001 * 100,000 = $100

Similarly, if you sell Euros (EUR/USD) at 1.4697 and buy Euros at 1.4707, you will have a $100 loss.

Open Positions

You can also calculate your unrealized profits and losses on open positions in just the same way. Just replace the current bid or ask rate for the action you will take when closing out your position. For example, if you bought Euros at 1.4707 and the current bid rate is 1.4703, you have an unrealized loss of $40.

Leverage and the risk vs reward

If you have an initial capital of $10,000 and if you trade on a 50:1 margin you can effectively control a capital of $500,000. However, a two percent move against your stand will completely wipe out your capital. A beginner trader should not ideally use more than 20:1 margin until you get comfortable with trading strategies.

What now is a 20:1 margin? With your $10,000 investment you will control a capital of $200,000. If you are trading the pair EUR/USD and have decided to take a long position (buy), it means you are betting that the USD will depreciate against the Euro.

For Example:

Let’s say current EUR/USD rate is 1.470. If your trading capital is $10,000 and your leverage is 20:1 you will effectively be able to convert $200,000 into Euros. If the current rate is 1.470 you will receive 200,000/1.470 = 136,054 Euros.

If the trade goes in your direction margin will work in your favour and 1% decline in USD will mean 20% increase in your start up capital. Lets see how this happens – if EUR/USD rate moves from 1.470 to 1.4847 you will be able to exchange your 136,054 Euros back to $202,000 for a profit of $2,000 resulting in a 20% increase in your initial capital from $10,000 to $12,000.

However, the converse is also true in that if the currency movement went against you and the USD appreciated 1% to 1.4553 your dollar conversion would deplete your capital by $2000.

Foreign property is almost always priced in a foreign currency. To buy abroad, it is therefore likely you will need to make at least one foreign exchange transaction. Not choosing the ideal exchange rate could see your property costing far more than expected.

For example, a Thai property priced at €125,000 would have cost £88,930 to buy in mid-December 2007. But by mid-April 2008, this figure would have risen to £100,401 - an increase of £11,471 in only four months due solely to exchange rate fluctuations.
