Manipulating Currency In Forex: Learn Online Trading

By Mike Bibby


There are many people who have heard stories of how someone made a lot of money quickly by using the Forex currency day trading system. There are many different people as well who offer trading secretes and tips that others can follow to make a lot of money via this system as well. There are even some software programs that claim to be designed to help analyze the trends in the market so that people can make wiser decisions in their trading so that they can make a lot of money quickly as well. As good as these products and systems sound, they are most often scams, since learning online currency trading in Forex takes time and practice, none of which come quickly to most people.

A New Language

Learning online currency trading in Forex is like learning a new language. In fact, there are many different terms and abbreviations that have to be mastered in order to be able to trade in the market. People need to learn what an exchange rate is and what it means that one thing is the base currency and the other is the counter currency or quote currency. The base rate is counted as 1 and the quoted currency is the one that tells how much of that currency it would take to buy one unit of the base currency.

The exchange rate is the amount of units that one currency needs to purchase one unit of the other currency. The spread between them is what the user has to consider in terms of making or losing money on the exchange in the future. Even though many of the spreads seem very small, they are really the difference between making thousands or losing thousands when learning online currency trading in Forex.

In addition to these terms, people also have to be aware of what all the abbreviations mean. The currency is listed according to these abbreviations which have to be learned when trading in online Forex currency. For instance, a pairing might be EUR/USD which means that the Euro is the base currency and the US dollar is the quote currency. The way it is laid out will show how many units of USD is needed to buy one unit of EUR. The person trading needs to keep in mind whether he thinks that the US dollar is going to get stronger or weaker, because that is going to affect whether he will make or lose money in the future.
