Why Trade Forex?

The markets are open 24 hours a day
Round the clock trading gives the trader the opportunity to trade within any time zone around the world. The currency market is the largest and most lucrative market available and its trading hours extend from Friday evening 10h00 until Monday evening 22h00. In between these periods the markets are open for trading 24 hours per day.

The currency market is a 24-hour market. As a trader, this allows you to react to favorable/unfavorable events by trading immediately. It also gives traders the added flexibility of determining their trading day. You can live and work anywhere in the world. You can be independent from routine and not answer to anybody.

Largest and most lucrative market in the world
If you add all the volume on all the stock exchanges in the world, it would still not get close to the volume on the Forex markets. Volume ensures that a trader will never be stuck with a position – if you want to buy there will be sellers and if you want to sell there will be buyers.

In excess of 1,5 trillion USD gets traded on a daily basis, this is more than all the other speculative markets put together and with more than 60 currency pairs available for trading daily it has a huge potential for day traders.

Unequalled volume and movement in the world
Together with volume a day trader needs volatility – price movement. The movement in the Forex market together with the gearing factor makes this one of the most lucrative markets in the world.

More currency than stock market shares are traded on a daily basis. There will always be buyers and sellers with the resultant opportunities to trade. You can also trade when the markets are moving upwards or downwards.
