Press Release Body: FOREX trading is all about trading foreign currency, stocks, and
similar type of products. The currency of one country is weighed against the
currency of another country to determine value. The value of that foreign currency
is taken into consideration when trading stocks on the FOREX markets. Most countries
have control over the value of that countries value, involving the currency, or
money. Those who are often involved in the FOREX markets include banks, large
businesses, governments, and financial institutions.

What makes the FOREX market different from the stock market?
A forex market trade is one that involves at least two countries, and it can take
place worldwide. The two countries are one, with the investor, and two, the country
the money is being invested in. Most all transactions taking place in the FOREX
market are going to take place through a broker, such as a bank.

What really makes up the FOREX markets?
The foreign exchange market is made up of a variety of transactions and counties.
Those involved in the FOREX market are trading in large volumes, large amounts of
money. Those who are involved in the FOREX market are generally involved in cash
businesses, or in the trade of very liquid assets that you can sell and buy fast.
The market is large, very large. You could consider the FOREX market to be much
larger than the stock market in any one country overall. Those involved in the FOREX
market are trading daily twenty-four hours a day and sometimes trading is completed
on the weekend, but not all weekends.

You might be surprised at the number of people that are involved in FOREX trading.
In the years 2004, almost two trillion dollars was an average daily trading volume.
This is a huge number for the number of daily transactions to take place. Think
about how much a trillion dollars really is and then times that by two, and this is
the money that is changing hands every day!

The FOREX market is not something new, but has been used for over thirty years. With
the introduction of computers, and then the internet, the trading on the FOREX
market continues to grow as more and more people and businesses alike become aware
of the availability of this trading market. FOREX only accounts for about ten
percent of the total trading from country to country, but as the popularity in this
market continues to grow so could that number.
