Forex What is Forex?

The Forex (FOReign EXchange) market appeared at the end of the 1970s after many countries decided to unpeg their currency value from that of the US dollar or gold. This led to the forming of an international market on which currency could be exchanged and traded freely. Today, Forex is the largest financial market in the world. It doesn’t matter where you live or even where you are right now; as long as you have access to the internet, a TRADING TERMINAL (a special program for trading Forex) and an account with a Forex broker, all the instruments and opportunities of Forex are open to you.
