Forex, or foreign exchange, is a network of buyers and sellers, who transfer international currency pairs between each other at an agreed price. It is the means by which individuals, companies and central banks convert one currency into another.

Forex trading is conducted over the counter, meaning there’s no physical exchange and a global network of banks and other financial institutions oversee the market. The forex market is run by a global network of banks, spread across four major forex trading centres in different time zones: London, New York, Sydney and Tokyo. There is no central location and you can trade forex 24 hours a day from Monday to Friday; the forex market is closed on weekends.

Forex trading is a great career option for those who can work hard for it. There is nothing like a get-rich-quick scheme and anyone trying to make money through forex must know that buying and selling currency pairs is not as easy as said. Forex trading is complicated and risky too. You will get better at trading only with patience and discipline.

Practise as much as you can and test strategies to find out which one is best for you. Learn about risk management and money management. Maintain discipline and remain patient.
