The word Forex is simply made up of the first letters from the words Foreign Exchange. It may also be written as FX, and it is often called currency trading. It involves buying and selling different world currencies according to whether you think they will rise or fall in value.

This may sound like it would be a difficult thing to do, but there are many systems available that can help you to identify signals and trends indicating that the price of a currency pair is likely to move in one direction or another. There are even automated forex trading systems, otherwise known as forex robots that will identify the signals for you and even open and close your trades automatically so that you are trading the forex market on autopilot.

Unlike most financial markets, the forex market is active 24 hours a day during the business week. This is because of its global nature. The major financial centres of the world operate in different time zones and you can trade whenever any one of them is open. Between them they cover the whole 24 hours.

It is a very high liquidity market with an average daily turnover that is now estimated to be close to $4 trillion a day. This is more than the combined turnover of all the stock markets in the world.
