Foreign exchange, or forex trading is simply the simultaneous purchase and sale of one country's currency for the currency of another currency. Forex trading is always done in currency pairs. As the value of one currency rises or falls relative to another, traders decide to buy or sell currencies in order to make profit. The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in the world with a daily turnover of more than $1.4 trillion, making it the most exciting and accessible market for trading. As the forex market works 24-hours a day, 5 days a week, it also has the highest liquidity and is easy to trade in any economic environment.

The EUR/USD is the most commonly traded currency pair in the world. The EUR/USD consists of 2 currencies which create a 'pair'. The first currency in the pair is known as the 'base' currency, and the second one as the 'counter' or 'quote' currency. EUR/USD is actually a comparison of the value of one currency in relation to the other. For example, the quotation EUR/USD 1.3500 means that one Euro is exchanged for 1.35 US dollars. If the quote moves from EUR/USD 1.3500 to EUR/USD 1.3510, the Euro is getting stronger and the Dollar weaker. In this case, you would buy if you expected that the Euro would continue to strengthen against the Dollar.


The EUR/GBP is another popular currency pair for traders. The EUR/GBP consists of 2 currencies which create a 'pair'. In this case, the Euro is the 'base' currency, and British Pound Sterling is the 'counter' or 'quote' currency. EUR/GBP is actually a comparison of the value of one currency in relation to the other. For example, the quotation EUR/GBP 0.80 means that one EUR is exchanged for 0.80 British pounds (80 pence). If the quote moves from EUR/GBP 0.80 to EUR/GBP 0.90, the Euro is getting stronger and the Pound weaker. In this case, you would buy if you expected that the Euro would continue to strengthen against the Pound.
