So, for example, refer to the quotation Japanese currency: USD / JPY, Canada - USD / CAD. Such designations can often be seen not only in Forex, but in most commercial banks. If you are seeing on screen quote USD / JPY is equal to one hundred twenty (120.00), which means that one U.S. dollar is equivalent to the sum of 120 Japanese yen. In this regard the increasing importance of quotes will mean growth in the dollar and depreciation of the currency being compared to him. For example, if the value is the same quote USD / JPY will be higher - 125.40, the dollar becomes stronger against the Japanese currency as well as for the same dollar can buy more yen. In the case of the British currency (British pound, designated GBP - Great Britain Pound), the quotation will return the form, for example - GBP / USD. Here, accordingly, the pound is the base currency, therefore, quote 1.92 GBP / USD would mean that one British pound equal to the sum of $ 1,92 US. By the same rule defined quotes Australian dollar (AUD) and beloved in recent Euro (EUR). Quotes of the currency will also have all kind of AUR / *** and EUR /***.

History of FOREX

In the history of mankind, currency exchange, has always played a significant role. But only in the Middle Ages were established international banks that have adopted exchange financial capital. These documents were considered valid for submission to a third party, which will undoubtedly increase the flexibility and the number of cleared monetary instruments. It is born and the final formation of the market purchase - sale of currency. Exchange market has matured in its present form only in the twentieth century. Market currency trading qualifies periodically by successive phases of increasing the frequency and amplitude of the increase of price changes (volatility of exchange rates), as well as their relative stability. Up to the forties of last century was the base currency trading in London and the UK currency is the currency for the formation of foreign exchange reserves and settlements. As a result of World War II, the UK economy has suffered great damage.

Candlesticks (Japanese candlesticks)

Schedule of candlesticks (Japanese candlestick diagram) is very similar in principle and structure of the chart bars (bar chart). Here, too, are displayed next to all the parameters of foreign exchange rates: the fixation point in the opening position (open), reached a minimum (min), maximum (max), the price value at the time of closing positions (close). As the chart bars, each candle represents the trading period, such as the duration in minutes or hours. Candle chart called this because of its similarity with a candle with a wick. Each column has a marked increase (rectangle), called the candlestick body (real body). Filled filled rectangle (candle gets black fill) indicates that during this period, the price of currency at the close was lower than at the opening, that is, for the entire period, the value of the currency declined. An empty rectangle (candle gets a white fill) means the opposite: closing price exceeded the value of the open price, that is the whole value of the currency has increased over the period. White, empty candle stand out against a black background, as if to say: "Here it is positive period!"

Graphs bars (bar charts)

The graph bars (Bar chart), is perhaps one of the toughest on forex, however, the most informative, with enough clever monitoring system of exchange. It just has all the four values of prices: the opening / closing (open / close), maximum / minimum (min / max). The graph bars represents the combined vertical bars, with the intermediate division, and something like a tick chart, but it provides for other purposes. The ends of each dash isolate the value price for a certain period of time, displayed below, the x-axis (the lower end - the lowest price, top - the maximum). Feature, located on the left of each column, shows the level of the currency value at the beginning of the period. It is called the opening price or starting price (denoted by open). Such a trait, located on the right of each column - value of the currency, the current at the close of a period, it is called the cost of closing time or position (close).

Line charts

At present a variety of forex price charts, one of them, the most widely used, simple and intuitive - a line graph or line chart (line chart). Readability of such plots vary it a minute to one year. Due to this wide selection, a trader always has an opportunity to establish the necessary price of his division (the trading period) and get a visual aid for the analysis of changes in quotations for a set period of time. The graph represents a set of points connected by lines. The vertical scale is traditionally will mark price of the currency, the vertical scale, the scale of the abscissa represents the period of time. This method of presentation is suitable for tracking incremental changes rates for the desired period of time. The whole difficulty lies not in the chart, and in the correct choice of the interval at which it will be possible to determine the trend in rates. It all depends on what action you plan to make if you want to open or close a position, it is desirable to know for how long. Only then can benefit from using a line graph of prices. It can also be used if you are new to Forex and would like to see the jumps and drop rates for the past year, for example. For many, such knowledge provides a good start in the career of a trader. Every newbie should know about the existence of linear plots to be able to apply them in their work. When used properly, a line graph allows you to quickly find a particular situation, to decide on further actions to build the first steps of its strategy. Do not sort out the line graph is the place for a novice virtual stock exchange with a demo account. I recommend to everyone, this is a good opportunity to learn the basics of trading on this exchange.

Tick charts

There are four types of price charts Forex, one of them, which will be covered in this article is the tick (tick chart). This schedule has the lowest scale of one tick. Due to the small time interval in a single tick, this graph represents a set of uneven columns. The height and location of the column on the vertical axis shows the change in value of a currency for the shortest period of time. This method of presentation is best suited to monitor small changes of currencies. Its also nice to use for tracking currencies, the value of the cost of which will change dramatically over a short period of time and currency, value, value which is almost unchanged, but is constantly fluctuating. Every self-respecting trader must be able to use this tool in their work, it helps prostroit precise strategy for further action, coupled with an analysis of various events in the near term. Now, without the knowledge and understanding of the Forex charts do nothing. I recommend to all, before their work properly deal with this kind of schedule, to understand what benefits it provides.

Price Charts

Graphs are one of the most important tools for the trader. The trader receives information on changes in exchange rates relative to the time period, such information is most conveniently represented as a graph. The vertical axis of this graph shows the value of the currency price, the horizontal - the time period changes. Such a schedule allows you to visually see the trend of demand for a particular currency in advance to prepare for its sale or purchase. The horizontal axis (time axis) has a different "price of the division," called taymfreymom or trading period. Trading period is usually on the chart the price of one division of the minutes, up to one year. There is a standard, conventional quotation of time, called a tick.

At the opening of the trading period must always fix two currency prices (buy / sell), which is inconvenient, because of which recorded average bid / ask, then the value of the initial price of the trading period is calculated by the formula (bid + ask) / 2. The peak value of the currency indicated by the index is high and the highest price in the market for a certain period (compared with the value of demand is ask, because it is always higher). Minimum price fixed by the index low - the lowest cost value for the period. In this case fixed to the proposal bid. As supporting information on the schedule set tick volume (tick volume). This parameter indicates the number of changes to the currency value for a set period of time.  
On the FOREX are 4 types of charts: tick (tick chart), line (line chart), bars (bar chart), the graph "Japanese candle» (Japanese candlestick).

Information analysis

There are several types of analysis. All tests are very important for the exchange market. One of the most important tests - information analysis of the exchange market. This analysis allows us to guess where in a short time will move the exchange rate. Information analysis is certainly important for active participants in the exchange market. Take the example of September 11, 2001. On this day, when there was a great tragedy, especially smart traders are able to increase his fortune in two, and some of them three times! Naturally it is clear that they did not expect such a disaster, so the state could increase only the smartest traders, and those who did not manage to sell / buy foreign currency, they have lost a lot of money. Of course, it is clear that any disaster, war, terrorist act, may so alter the exchange rate, that is not even a very rich man can become in times richer, and probably a millionaire, if you quickly orient. Such information on disasters spread instantly over the Internet, and on the only active players with advanced capabilities and accomplishments will be able to quickly buy / sell the currency.

To get the right information quickly and conduct information analysis, you must have the following things: a modern computer, high speed Internet access, a special set of software and all the other things that will help you learn the latest and important news.

Technical analysis

Technical analysis is not bad, I would say a great way to anticipate potential situations and events in the forex market further down the road. He performed with the help of dynamic charts, analysis of price changes over the period. Often, it may seem strange to any, as on the basis of what happened earlier, you can understand what will happen in the future. In fact, it is no secret that even the historical events sooner or later recur. The reason is the fact that every event, every situation is preceded by any reason, realizing that in the future you can simply prevent one or another potential problem. For a trader's worst problem is the sudden drop in prices on the open position they are not foreseeing this, he will suffer significant losses, not to mention profits.

It is worth to stop and think, and that in general can lead to a sharp increase / decrease in demand for a currency and, consequently, to lower its cost. For example, Americans spend a lot of money on military spending, which most likely led to this decline of the dollar. A lot of clever people on this play, many have lost, nothing can be done about it. When someone wins, someone will lose, what can you do, the money did not materialize out of thin air. The bottom line is that you just want to win, you need to know how to analyze price charts. Own schedules, in essence, you only give out statistical information on which to identify the cause of any changes in no way possible. When you see those changes in the course or at a particular time, you have the opportunity to find out what was at that time resulted in such changes. Perhaps at this point was some kind of a big foreign exchange transaction, some company repaid the loan debt, someone invested in the currency of new and emerging technologies. Any currency event may lead to different price changes. You may need to make an analysis of political developments in the country, to follow the actions of central banks, etc. There are many reasons that may affect the value of currencies, it all depends on you whether you can predict, anticipate or that change and play it successfully.

Fundamental analysis

In order to understand the direction of the market, it is necessary to carry out various tests. One such test is - a fundamental analysis of stock market. This analysis is based on the usual factors that may indicate the movement of a particular stock market, which is necessary for an active participant in the exchange market Forex. Usually, all traders are based on factors such as political events, economic and social problems, but it's not all factors affecting the quotation of a currency of a country. Fundamental analysis is very useful and necessary for active traders predicting the economic status of any country, but it is practically useless in the calculation of definite or market prices.

Everything that happens in the country, from politics, economic news, to disasters and mass destruction and called the fundamental parameters (data). There are also two types of traders. There are proponents of fundamental analysis stock market, and there are fans of technical analysis. But in today's stock market hard to do the same type of analysis, as well as an analysis manifests itself in some indications, but not very good or just to others, and other analysis on the contrary, behaves well in the testimony, in which the other appears worse. Because, if you carefully study the long and the various factors affecting the rate of a currency, it is impossible not to notice that it is very difficult to obtain precise knowledge use only fundamental analysis. So if you want to get as much information, you have to learn to use these two analyzes exchange market.

What is Forex?

Forex (FX) - the international currency market - a market where one currency bought and sold in others. This - one of the biggest markets in the world.

Some of the participants in this market are simply seeking to exchange foreign currency for their own or, conversely, to such parties are, for example, transnational corporations, which must pay wages and other costs in some countries, selling products in another. However, much of the market consists of currency speculators who profit from movements in exchange rates, as well as speculators profit by movements in stock prices. Currency traders can take advantage of even small fluctuations in exchange rates.
