Intro:Why FOREX

If you are reading this guide, you have most likely taken some sort of interest in
the Forex market. But what does the Forex market have to offer you?

1. Accessibility – It’s no wonder that the Forex market has the trading volume of 3 trillion a day ‐ all anyone needs to take part in the action is a
   computer with an internet connection.
2. 24 Hour Market ‐ The Forex market is open 24 hours a day, so that you can be right there trading whenever you hear a financial scoop. No need to
   bite your fingernails waiting for the opening bell.
3. Narrow Focus – Unlike the stock market, a smaller market with tens of
   thousands of stocks to choose from, the Forex market revolves around
   more or less eight major currencies. A narrow choice means no rooms for
   confusion, so even though the market is huge, it’s quite easy to get a clear
   picture of what’s happening.
4. Liquidity ‐ The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in the world with a daily turnover of just over $3 trillion! Now apart from
   being a really cool statistic, the sheer massive scope of the Forex market is
   also one of its biggest advantages. The enormous volume of daily trades
   makes it the most liquid market in the world, which basically means that
   under normal market conditions you can buy and sell currency as you
   please. You can never be in a jam for currency to buy or stuck with
   currency that you can’t unload.
5. The Market Can’t Be Cornered ‐ The colossal size of the Forex market also
   makes sure that no one can corner the market. Even banks don’t have
   enough pull to really control the market for a long period of time, which
   makes it a great place for the little guy to make a move.
