What Is Forex and How to Make Money with It?

**coyahud** · 14th July 2011, 02:20

Forex is the knowledge and business of making money through trading foreign currencies. Forex is not a new business and its history is as old as the history of money.

What is forex is a question that people ask a lot these days. There are people who have been making money through Forex from many years ago. Fortunately, with the help of computer and internet, Forex trading has become much easier. You can sit at your personal computer and trade from home without having to make any phone call or referring to any bank.

How can you make money?

Buying low and selling high or selling high and buying low is the base of making money in Forex. For example If you buy GBP against USD when each GBP is equal to $1.9554USD and then sell it when it is $2.0235USD, you have made a profit. I don’t want to focus on more details in this article and explain how the profits and the money you make will be calculated. I will talk about these topics in other articles.

But the big question is that how you can find out the best time to buy and how you can predict that if you buy, the price will go up and you will make a profit? This is the most important question that makes you a successful trader.

There are two methods to know the optimum time to buy and sell: Technical and Fundamental Analysis.

In technical analysis, you can predict the direction of the price using the the price chart analysis and also with the help of some special tools that are called Indicators.

Hugh, VB is considered redneck beer by those of us with a bit of class to our palate...i wouldn't touch it with a barge pole..

Cheers

Hugh, XXXX is most certainly NOT VB!..XXXX is made by Queenslanders, VB is made by Victorians who send the shite by the truckload in spite when we win one of their sporting trophys.
