Forex is short for foreign exchange. The forex market is where currencies are traded, making it the largest and most liquid financial market in the world. As of 2019, it recorded an average daily turnover of approximately $6.6 trillion.
Forex trading is based on fluctuations in exchange rates. Traders speculate on currency pair price movements and earn profits from the difference between buying and selling prices.
Margin is the amount of funds required to open a new trading position. It is calculated based on trade size, which is measured in lots.
A standard lot equals 100,000 units. We also support:
Larger lots require higher margin. Margin allows traders to use leverage, enabling positions larger than their actual capital.
Leverage allows traders to open positions larger than the capital they possess by borrowing funds from a broker.
For example, a leverage ratio of 1:100 means that a trader with $1,000 can control a position worth $100,000.
While leverage can amplify potential gains, it also increases potential losses, making risk management essential.
The forex market operates 24 hours a day due to overlapping global time zones. Trading begins at 5:00 p.m. EST on Sunday and closes at 4:00 p.m. EST on Friday, excluding holidays.
Markets open sequentially across regions—starting in Australasia, followed by Europe, and then North America—ensuring continuous trading opportunities.
This round-the-clock accessibility is one of the key reasons forex trading attracts millions of traders worldwide.
