To illustrate an FX trade, consider the following two examples.

2009-05-11T01:52:00.000-07:00

Let's say that the current bid/ask for EUR/USD is 1.46160/190, meaning you can buy 1 euro for 1.46190 or sell 1 euro for 1.46160. Suppose you decide that the Euro is undervalued against the US dollar. To execute this strategy, you would buy Euros (simultaneously selling dollars), and then wait for the exchange rate to rise. So you make the trade: to buy 100,000 Euros you pay 146,190 dollars (100,000 x 1.46190). Remember, at 1% margin, your initial margin deposit would be approximately $1,461 for this trade. As you expected, Euro strengthens to 1.46230/260. Now, to realize your profits, you sell 100,000 Euros at the current rate of 1.46230, and receive $146,230 You bought 100k Euros at 1.46190, paying $146,190. Then you sold 100k Euros at 1.46230, receiving $146,230. That's a difference of 4 pips, or in dollar terms ($146,190 - 146,230 = $40).

Understanding Forex Quotes

2009-05-11T01:36:00.000-07:00

Reading a foreign exchange quote is simple if you remember two things:
The first currency listed is the base currency
The value of the base currency is always 1.As the centerpiece of the forex market, the US dollar is usually considered the base currency for quotes. When the base currency is USD, think of the quote as telling you what a US dollar is worth in that other currency. When USD is the base currency and the quote goes up, that means USD has strengthened in value and the other currency has weakened. Rising quotes mean a US dollar can now buy more of the other currency than before.

The foreign exchange market is the world’s largest financial market, but it wasn’t always accessible to any typical trader. Remember, forex trading is not conducted on a regulated exchange and as a result, there are additional risks associated with forex trading. In the past, access to foreign exchange of currencies was limited to banks, hedge funds, major currency dealers and the occasional high net-worth individual. But smaller financial institutions wanted to take advantage of the many benefits forex offered over other markets, including its tremendous liquidity, 24-hour access 5.5 days of the week and the strong trending nature of currency exchange rates.

It was this entrepreneurial vision of the smaller financial institutions and the evolution of the Internet that made forex accessible at a retail level. These institutions, including GFT, combined the accessibility of the Internet and fast and efficient proprietary software with accurate pricing, charting abilities, technical indicators and news feeds, which allowed any interested speculator open access to trade currencies. From 2002 to 2005 the practice of trading forex has grown threefold and this growth curve continues still. So read more about the benefits of using GFT and our access the w
