Forex trading examples
Say you believe the Australian dollar will rise against the US dollar. You can place a buy trade on AUD/USD. If the price rises, you’d make a profit for every pip it moved in your favour. But if the market falls, you’d make a loss for every point the price moves against you.
Forex market hours
Currency markets are open 24 hours a day because there’s no central exchange. Instead, prices are determined by interbank trading, the exchange of currencies between banks on a constant basis, all over the world.
