Foreign exchange is a continuous global market, providing a 24-hour market access to
its players. Since it is open only 5 days a week, so weekend is the closing period.
Although foreign exchange is the most liquid of all markets, the fact that it is an
international market and trading 24-hours a day, the time of day can have a direct
impact on the liquidity available for trading a particular currency.
The major centers and time zones are that of Sydney, Tokyo, London, and New York.
Therefore, forex alerts must consider which players are in the market, since in the
modern interconnected financial world, events that occur at any hour, in any part of
the globe, can affect some or all parts of the investment community.
In forex trading, you are not ignorant like one remains in stock for a considerable
period of time about the news affecting the liquidity of a stock. In stock market,
you come to know about inside trading, revision in earnings only after the market
has reacted upon it.
But in forex currency trading, this is not the case. Here you get various forex
signals. Significant information affecting a particular currency becomes known to
everyone in the trade instantaneously. There isn't anything as insider trading in a
forex market.
There are many online forex trading startegy sites. They all maintain a global
economic calendar. This calendar indicates the major forthcoming economic, financial
and business related events all over the world and which can have important bearing
on foreign exchange market. What you have to do is to keep a track of all important
events and news.
Certainly, it will not be an easy task to watch constantly all the factors affecting
foreign exchange trading market. They change in importance over time and condition.
But the information is available to anyone and for use to one's benefit. A currency
trader has got a chance to react immediately to any new information.
Unlike stock market, another important advantage forex trading offers is that you
can do foreign currency trading almost from anywhere from the world. There are so
many online forex trading signal platforms available to get instant information and
to act within time.
Most important GDP figures that affect forex trading are of USA, Japan, Canada,
Australia and Britain. China is also expected to be a major force in online paper
trading in near future.
Central banks play a significant role in the forex market because they have the
responsibility of changing the country's "base" interest rate. A central bank has to
maintain growth in the economy in accordance with inflation, so it creates a good
balance in interest rates. The bank's decisions on whether to raise, cut, or hold
the interest rate fuels speculation in the forex market, where the value of a
currency, or group of currencies, changes in real time.
Natural disasters, terrorist attacks, and militarily actions in a sensitive region
can have a significant impact on the forex market as they create a disturbance in
the world. For more about these forex, forex trading strategy, forex signal, forex
