The Largest Financial Market
In The World!
Before we show you how you can participate in the Forex market, a quick history
lesson will help you understand the power and potential of this opportunity.
The Forex market, established in 1971, was created when floating
exchange rates began to materialize. The Forex market is not centralized, like
in currency futures or stock markets. Trading occurs over computers and
telephones at thousands of locations worldwide.
The Forex market, which is the exchange of one currency to another, is the
largest market in the world. In comparison, the US stock market may trade
$10-$35 billion in one day, whereas the Forex market will trade up to $2
trillion in one single day.
The largest foreign exchange activity is the spot
exchange (ie., immediate) between the US dollar and four other major currencies:
British Pound, Japanese Yen,
Eurodollar, and the Swiss Franc.
These four currencies are bought and sold
against the US dollar.
