Forex Trading
When an investor is forex trading, they are looking to profit from foreign exchange (ForEx) currency movements. Forex trading is also referred to as currency trading and is done with forex pairs (also called currency pairs). An example of a currency pair is EUR/USD, which represents the differences in values between the US dollar and the Canadian dollar. Therefore, if USD/CAD currently has the Forex Rate of 1.110 then the euro is worth 1.11 times the US dollar (1.11 euro = $1US). If a Forex Trader where to buy 1000 of EUR/USD for 1110 US dollars at this time (therefore buying 1000 euros). Then a week later the euro is 1.35/1 in relation to the US dollar (the pair: EUR/USD would be shown as 1.350) the Forex trader could sell back their 1000 euros to receive 1350 US dollars. Therefore, the investor would be making a profit of $250US ($1350US - $1100US).
Whether a Forex Trader is forex trading USD/CAD or EUR/USD or any other Forex Pair they are always betting that the first currency is going to increase in value versus the second currency. Once this occurs the Forex Trader would sell back the the Forex Pair to make profit off the increase difference between the two currencies.
