Forex trading, what the hype is all about

The Buzz about Forex Trading

Almost everyone in the civilized world has heard about making big income by trading currency in the Forex market where large sum of money exchange hands everyday. References about Forex are not difficult to find whether on the Internet or through hard copies of reference materials. Almost the same broker or financial institutions that handle stocks and bonds also handles currency trading.

When you engage in Forex trading, you’re basically sending your money to another country to become part of their investment also; their own stock your country’s currency. Your investment will usually be used by hedge fund managers and other market people overseas. But you could easily convert your money from one currency to another in just a matter few minutes everyday – making or losing profit during the process. It is your broker’s job to keep tract of your money day in day out. The currencies of other countries are presented in your Forex statements as a symbol with three letters; each currency is assigned letters to become its symbol.

Therefore, you’ll know that its United States dollar if you see USD, Japanese Yen if you see JPY, and British Pound Sterling if you see a GBP. Under the ‘transactions’ category in your statement, you’ll also see something like JPYzzz/GBPzzz, which means that you bought some amount of British Pound and you paid it with some amount of Japanese Yen. If you’ve already bought and sold several currencies, you’ll find many of these symbols in your statement.
There are dedicated companies that can take care of your Forex investment needs like the management firms. In order to secure your money, it pays if you hire a broker or a management group that have been in the business for quite some time already – get ones with almost over 30 years of experience at least. You should naturally be conscious about joining online Forex trading with companies that are only starting with no clear track record to show yet. Don’t skip the fine print when you’re reading about their guidelines and the background of their company because more often than not, the tricky information is concealed in these sentences printed almost obscurely small for your eyes to read.

As you will learn later on, different companies require different minimum amount of initial investment in the Forex market. Some companies require you only about $250 or $500 to start with while others require you to put $1,000 o r $10,000 in the very beginning. This minimum limit really depends upon the management company you want to use to take care of your investment. If you find online management companies that will only require you to put $1 or $5 as an initial investment, you need to double check these companies as this low initial investment is usually a red flag for scams. It’s better to invest some time on double checking these companies than to lose your hard earn money in the end.

Forex trading, where do customes go

Where Do You Go If You Want To Trade Currency?

The Forex market taps into the currency and other financial markets such as the stocks from all over the world to make possible a tremendous amount of money to exchange hands everyday. Forex market closely resembles the stock market in that it involves buying and selling of a financial product (world currencies in this case) but it takes to a much grander level of transaction in a given day. Financial institutions such as the Deutsche Bank, UBS, Citigroup, HSBC, Barclays, Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, ABN Amro, Morgan Stanley are the major players in this industry plus many more.

It will be in your great interest to contact any of these financial institutions or broker firms if you want to try trading currencies. The Forex market is indeed open for everybody but you should not forget to learn the basic things involved in trading currencies before joining. At least you should have an idea of which currency to convert your money into before starting to trade.
The most active players in this industry are International banks who have a lot of reserves from the businesses and depositors like you who put your money under their care. Trading currencies is one of the strategies these banks employ to earn interest from your deposits. You don’t have to look far to get the currency you are interested in – maybe for a travel. Your own local bank may just have the currency you’re looking for. However, if they are not involved in Forex, they most likely will not have foreign currency at their disposal. You can ask your bank’s manager or you can read their public information sheets that they publish on a quarterly basis to find out if you can trade currencies with your bank.

There is no single person or institution that controls all the transactions that occurs in the Forex market. Moreover, gazillion currencies are exchanging hands from all over the world and some of these currencies are more hotly traded than others. Among these hotly traded currencies are the United States Dollars, Eurozone’s Euro, Japanese Yen, British Pound Sterling, Swiss Franc, and the Australian Dollar. These are among the top currencies but the list goes on and on to cover the rest of the currencies in the world. Major markets and financial centers in Tokyo, New York, and London are among the top financial centers where currency trading happens in huge volume everyday. But each country has their own trading centers as well.

Who is participating in forex market trades

Who are the Players in the Forex Markets?


The trading that exists between currencies of two countries is termed as the foreign exchange market or the Forex market. These exchanges of currencies are facilitated by brokers or a financial institution in the timeliest manner. Today, Forex trading is no longer strange to the masses and many individuals are already engaged in this business, which really does not come very far from the stock market. The difference between the two, however, is that Forex is comparatively larger in scale than the Forex market. Practically all kinds of individuals and institutions are engaged in Forex such as the banks, governments, businesses, brokers, and even individual traders who are often called speculators. The state of the financial market and the economy is what determines the state of the currency of a particular country. A very large sum of money is changing hands in the Forex market; an amount reaching to trillions of dollars everyday.

According to the records, the largest sum of money that change hands over these past years happened between banks, something called an interbank transaction. In fact, 50 percent of the Forex transactions are facilitated by the banks. This goes to show that banks use Forex to earn money from the deposits made by the people and the businesses to them. Part of these earnings goes to the interest these banks pay to their depositors. In fact, Forex trading is one of the best income earners of many banks around the world. Some banks allow their deposits to be traded on Forex and ready them the next morning for withdrawals by their depositors.
Big companies also trade their cash reserves in Forex to gain income. Example of this blue chip companies and financial institutions that trade Forex are Deutsche Bank, UBS, Citigroup, HSBC, Barclays, Merrill Lynch, JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs, ABN Amro, Morgan Stanley, and many others. Forex trading is part of their strategy to increase wealth of their stock holders. Smaller companies also participates in Forex although not as broadly as the big companies for obvious reasons.

A country’s Central Bank plays a very important role when it comes to taking care of the Forex market and the Forex rate for its nation. In fact, the Central Bank is what determines the amount of money to be put in circulation and to some extent; it could affect the interest rate if needed – although other countries would cry foul if intervention is done. A large volume of trading usually happens in premiere markets such as in Tokyo, New York, and London. Of course, smaller markets around the world are also doing trading but not as large scale as these markets being mentioned. What ever the result of trading by these large companies and corporations in Forex, a portion of it is passed on to their investors – that is to say loss or gain.

Forex markets - Trading Internationally

International Trading: The Forex Market Style

Forex market is simply the trading of one currency for another base on the value of the two currencies involved. Almost all countries in the world trade currencies; it’s about buying or selling their currency for another country’s currency that involves determining how much their currency is worth in terms of the other. Therefore, currencies whose value is comparatively less than other currencies don’t get to be traded often, unlike those currencies that have high value.
The exchange of currencies happen 24/7 around the world, in fact, an estimated two-trillion dollars worth of money are exchange in a single day – a pretty gargantuan sum. Just imagine how many millions it needs to accumulate a trillion – let alone two-trillion – and this exchange happened everyday! This is one industry well loved by people who like to be involved in something where huge sum of money is handled everyday.

You can find in the Forex market just about every currency in the world that you need. For every currency in the world, there’s a corresponding three-letters symbol assigned to it for easy recognition during trading. For instance, the United States dollar is recognized as USD, Japanese Yen as JPY, British Pound as GBP, and the Euro as EUR. It’s not a crime to buy and sell different currencies in a day or trade one currency one day at a time. Forex trading is only facilitated by a broker or companies; they are going to charge for the transaction which is only normal. Therefore, consider you number of trades and the fee your broker requires before ending with a high transaction fee.
Trades happened everyday but the most actively traded currencies today are between the USD and the EUR. Next to this is the trade between JPY and the USD and between GBP and the USD. These currencies are among the top of the food chain when it comes to currency trading because of their robustness in the market. Currency trading is possible 24/7 because markets open and close 24/7 around the world. The different time zones around the world, in fact, are one of the major considerations when a trader engages in the Forex market.

Know that in Forex trading, you’ll only be presented with symbols and signs that could mean either a loss or a gain for your traded currency – this is true across all countries and currencies. For example, you’ll see symbols like EURzzz/USDzzz (where ‘zzz’ represents the percentage of trading and your margin for profit). Another example is AUSzzz/USDzzz if you’re trading between Australian dollar and US dollar. It pays to learn and study these symbols so that you would not be confused during trading; however, it’s easy to understand these signs once you’ve seen your Forex statements or your online receipts.

Be aware of the following


Scams in FOREX will leave you broke and sometimes in debt;


they will take your money, run away with it and you have no way of contacting these people or companies again. To avoid this, you need to investigate about the company or the people you are investing your money into; check if they have a business license in your country. If they aren’t license in your country to do FOREX, they’ve most likely been involved in a scam before.
The knowledge about this money making scheme that only FOREX can provide spread like wildfire over this past five years –thanks to the Internet. Now, if a person wants to invest in FOREX, he can just go to his local bank and ask for their FOREX broker to make the transaction. In return, these banks take some commission from the deal, which is normal.

FOREX scams come also in the form of software that supposedly design to help you learn FOREX trading by letting you practice trading in real time; hoping that when you do the actual trading, you’re already good at it. Trust only proven and tested software or system; do background check on your find. However, the best way to avoid scams is to seek advice from people in the know about FOREX and the FOREX market; you can usually find them in your local banks.

Leverage

Most Forex brokers permit 100:1 leverage, some as much as 200:1,

but also require that you have a certain amount of money in your account to protect against a critical loss point. A $100,000 position held in GBP/USD on 100:1 leverage means the trader has to put up $1,000 to control his position. However, in the event of a decline in value, Forex brokers do not allow traders to go negative. In order to make sure the trader does not lose more money than is held in the account, forex brokers employ automatic systems to close out positions should a client run out of margin (the amount of money in their account not tied to a position). If, for example, you have $2,000 in your account, and buy a $100,000 lot of EUR/USD, $1,000 of your $2,000 is tied up in margin, with $1,000 left to allow your position to fluctuate downward without being closed out.

An online trading platform will show three important numbers associated with your account: balance, equity, and margin remaining. If you have a $10,000 account and open one $100,000 position using 100:1 leverage, this has committed only $1,000 of your money plus you must maintain $1,000 in margin. While this leaves $9,000 free in your account, it is possible to lose it all if the position moves the wrong direction.

Market Influences

Economic
Economic policy adopted by government agencies and central banks, economic conditions revealed through economic reports, and other economic indicators including government fiscal and monetary policies.
• Government budget deficits or surpluses: The market usually reacts positively to tight budgets and surpluses; negatively to increased deficits.
• Balance of trade levels. The trade flow between countries illustrates the demand for goods and services, which in turn indicates demand for a country's currency to conduct trade. Surpluses and deficits in trade of goods and services reflect the competitiveness of a nation's economy. For example, trade deficits may have a negative impact on a nation's currency. This can work in reverse also - a large drop in the value of a currency can stimulate trade by making goods and services sold in the currency proportionataly cheaper.
• Typically, a currency will lose value if there is a high level of inflation in the country or if inflation levels are perceived to be rising. Inflation erodes purchasing power and therefore demand for that particular currency.
• Economic growth and health. Reports such as gross domestic product (GDP), employment levels, retail sales, capacity utilization, detail the levels of a country's economic growth and health. Generally, the more healthy and robust a country's economy, the better its currency will perform.

Political

• Political strife and upheaval tends to have a negative impact on a nation's economy and subsequent currency values. The coming to power of a political faction that is perceived to be fiscally responsible can have a positive effect. Also, events in a neighboring country can affect its currency.

Psychological
• Unsettling international events can lead to investors seeking a "safe port," for their money.There will be a greater demand, thus a higher price, for currencies perceived as stronger over their relatively weaker counterparts.
• Currency markets often move in visible long-term trends. Cycle analysis looks at longer-term price trends that may arise out of economic or political trends. Accumulated price movements in a currency pair such as GBP/USD can form apparent patterns that traders attempt to use to predict future movements. Many traders study price charts in order to identify these patterns

Forex vs Stock Market


Two of the main differences between (and some would say advantages over) the forex market compared to the stock market are:

1. Trading hours. The forex market is open 24 hours a day. Trading is done over three continents, allowing a trader to trade continuously and to react immediately to events and new developments. The market opens on Sunday evening and closes Friday night.

2. Commissions. Electronic trading and competition have brought about a sizeable reduction in the bid-offer spread (the equivalent of commissions). The spread covers the risk of the market maker. The spread for the majors remain very low, but can increase as the liquidity of a specific currency drops. Despite recent reductions of commissions through online stock brokers, the Forex market is considered, by some, to have the lowest commissions relative to trade size when compared to other financial markets. This is also in part due to the 100:1 leverage offered by most trading houses. A client with a $10,000 deposit can leverage this to $1,000,000. Some electronic communication network brokerages have introduced a per trade commision alongside a narrow pip spread.
Many retail trading houses would suggest that the large size of the market makes it impossible for a speculator to affect the market. This is not quite the truth - the stakes are higher, larger quantities of money are involved, and the bigger banks spend a lot of time and effort trying to manipulate the market. Governments have been known to step in and affect prices.
Unlike the stock market, where retail clients (individuals) have access to almost exactly the same prices as all other participants, the Forex market has several different levels of access and therefore commission costs or spreads. At the top are the largest investment banking firms such as Citi and Deutsche Bank, where the spreads or the difference between bid and ask prices are tiny. These spreads are a closely guarded secret, not normally known outside the inner circles of international finance.

Further down the trading chain, the spreads become wider. Basically, the larger the volume of trades, the narrower the spread. After the major top-tier banks come the smaller investment banks, large multi national corporations, pension funds, insurance companies and, more recently, some of the major retailers. Retail traders are a small fraction of the market and may only participate indirectly, through brokers or banks.
There are many influences on the value of currency when compared to other currencies, but the Forex market is almost a pure supply and demand market. Demand rises or supply falls, prices rise and vice versa. Electronic trading is slowly increasing in the Forex market with Algorithmic trading increasing also.

TYPES OF SCALPING

There are three methods of scalping the Forex market which I will be teaching in this article:

You could apply the EMA 4/12/63 to 15 minutes chart of your trading platform and scalp with the strategy. Alternatively, apply the one I will be sharing basically for this technique.

1. Time-sensitive trades: This comes in 2 forms: Firstly, in opening range breakouts, where a quick scalp is taken minutes before the open, in the direction of any market thrust. I revealed an important secret in the previous edition of SDE on the best trading time for the EMA 4/12/63. Meanwhile, if care is not taken, the bull back preceding the breakout of the 7:45am Nigeria time might strike your stop loss. But you can perfectly study the market; and scalp to make profits before the main breakout. And I will advise you always use your Bollinger Bands, preferably on a separate 15mins chart.
Secondly, trading to capitalize on the regular market turnaround time of the New York opening session. Infact, scalping is the best strategy to apply because something must happen. Keep your eyes also on 15 to 30 minutes to the FA release. I bet you that you would have made your target before the news. Then if the news is worth trading, trade and make more profits. Always tie this law on your neck and do not let it depart from you "make 20 or 30pips per day and every other pips shall be added unto thee"

2. Countertrend trades: Scalping when the market is silent or consolidating during the trading day. It could be the Asia session too.

3. Trend continuation trades: These methods focus on entering the market in the direction of a trend AFTER the trend has gone underway. They are also classified as retracement trades.
One of the most liquid, active and electronically accessible market is Online Forex Trading and I feel the scalping method represents the best known chances for picking consistent profits as a trader/scalper.
Oh! Getting interesting? Then I expect you to contribute, so that I can show you more ways of scalping the market soon.
Scalping is a very good trading strategy but I will like to encourage you that this strategy is not for all traders because of the emotion and risk involved. It is an advanced trading method that needs to be mastered before committing your live account. The scalping trading strategy that I will be sharing involves simple indicators; MACD and MOVING AVARAGE(s).
The MACD is an acronym for Moving Average Convergence/Divergence. It is a trend following momentum indicator that shows the relationship between two moving averages of prices. The MACD default is the difference between a 26-day and 12-day exponential moving average. A day exponential moving average, called the signal or trigger line is plotted on top of the MACD to show buy/sell opportunities.

MACD's can be used as an oscillator, does that sound too technical? No! Oscillators indicates that the asset will revert back to its mean valuation OR a Momentum indicator; indicates that the trend is strong and will continue. Parameters: The MACD line is the difference between the 12 and 26 day EMA. The signal line is the 9 day EMA of the MACD. Visually, the MACD consists of three elements, like the MACD, it is a line plotted on the bottom of the chart. The MACD line. This is simply the difference between the 12 and 26 day EMA. It is a line plotted on the chart. The Histogram. The MACD histogram is simply a bar chart located at the bottom/top of the chart, where the MACD and signal lines are plotted. The histogram is simply a visual representation of the difference between the MACD and the signal line. The "zero" point of the histogram - meaning the point where the bars cross above and below - is referred to as the centerline.

Scalping The Forex Market For Mega Profits


What is Scalping? Many traders don't really understand that simple word.

Some even pronounced it wrongly, and if you don't understand the meaning now, you can not benefit from the mega returns that the strategy is generating in the world's largest financial market.
Scalping is a focused technique that involves making a minuscule trade to generate profit within a short period of time. This method of trading the FX market is of high probability trades with extremely small risk stops and predefined profit objectives, it is also a means of taking a million trades to make a million dollars.

There are different types of traders; "Position Traders" "Intraday Traders" and "Scalpers" A position trader could engage in trades that are intended to last for multiple days or months with huge pips target of hundreds to thousands. An Intraday trade could typically engages in trades that might last for less than a day aiming for targets of 20 to 100pips while A Scalper engages in trades that might last for few minutes and the minimum target could be 5+ pips. Pick your calculator now and calculate 5pips on a 2.00 standard lots of 5 trades per day for 20 trading days (5pips x 5 trades x 20 dollars x 20 trading days = $10,000 monthly) If all the scalping techniques are adhered to. Are you saying it's not possible! Just demo trade this for a month and see what I am saying.
A scalper normally trade higher lots size or volume depending on your account size and risk acceptance. For the fact that this technique requires a maximum Stop Loss of 20pips, you must also maintain a good equity management principle. If you could just sincerely follow the rules that I will be teaching you on this technique, you could rake in more profits to your bank account without stress compared to day or position traders.

Let me sound this warning that if your account can not accommodate the risk involved scalping with higher lots or contract value, please don't trade higher lots. Simple! Because scalping is more emotional and advanced in nature in the aspect of making a very quick decision and trade execution. Don't trade without setting your stop loss when scalping. Trading without stop loss could wipe off your account with this strategy. P-L-E-A-S-E, just follow the simple trading rules that I will be sharing with you.
Scalpers often engage in multiple trades per day. Some traders execute several trades and make profits with ease. Don't worry, I will teach you the technical know-how of scalping the market. Scalps are executed in the direction of the current trend of the Forex market. You can't run away from the fact that the "trend is your friend" if you don't know the trend of the market, don't place any order.

You could also take larger profits as this lesson is getting more technical by applying trailing stop. What is Trailing Stop? Stop Loss is intended for reducing losses where the symbol or currency pair price moves in an unprofitable direction. If the position becomes profitable, stop loss can be manually shifted to a break-even level. To automate this process, Trailing Stop was created. This tool is especially useful when price changes strongly in the same direction or when it is impossible to watch the market continuously for some reason.

The beauty of scalping is that, it allows traders to trade even when other techniques would make you sit with your PC for long without trading. Scalping is best used in conjunction with or as a supplement to other trading techniques - so keep trading your normal strategy that you are used to and add scalping to your trading toolbox.

Why Some Fail At Forex And Some Win Like A Landslide

Foreign Exchange is the largest of the global financial markets.

It's about exchanging one countries currency for another. Trillions of dollars are traded each and every day. In the early days it was used by large banks, multinational corporations and extremely wealthy currency speculators. The influx of online brokerages has created a large retail foreign exchange market. Banks and large multinational corporations generally trade foreign exchange transactions simply as a function of doing international business or to hedge themselves to protect their base currency from devaluation.

Forex speculators exploit fluctuations in the foreign exchange market for profit. Currency trading happens throughout the day, as the Asian trading session ends, the European session begins, followed by the North American session and then back to the Asian session, excluding weekends. Forex markets provides strategies and instruments to the investor and corporate companies that look to have better value from their international risk exposures. Because foreign exchange is an OTC market where brokers/dealers negotiate directly with one another, there is no central exchange or clearing house.

Why is Forex Trading So Difficult?

I'm sure that you have seen websites offering some easy trading method to earn you money.

As sure as they exist, it is equally certain that they don't work. Of course they will work to a limit, but you will see that your account does not increase in money. Why is that?

The reason is that the forex trading can be considered to be a zero sum game. A zero sum game is one where you are competing directly with other people. Trading is not like a computer game where the company structures it in such a way so that there is a reasonable chance that you can win if you try hard enough. Rather it is more like chess where you are looking into the eyes of the person who is trying to destroy you! When you lose money, this is because someone else is taking your money. As a result, easy trading methods offered online cannot work, because if it was that easy, someone else would beat you to the money.

As a result, anyone planning to make money from trading needs to realize that it requires a lot of hard work and study. You have to know more about a graph than anybody else. The logical conclusion is that you learn the character of one graph only and not forex generally. The patterns on a graph may look easy, but they are actually very complicated (although not impossible) to understand and therefore predict for future forex profiting.

Forex Day Trading Strategy - Which One Is The Best For You


Many currency exchange traders have developed their own forex day trading strategy to ensure their success in this field.


However, there is no general method or rule that can be conceptualized since currencies are greatly dependent on the condition of the market on a "per day" basis.
Hence, to develop the best forex day trading strategy possible, it is essential that you understand these 3 different strategies that the industry experiences.

1. Slow Trending Day
The market experiences a slow trending day when the price of currencies start at 200ma, extends no greater than 20pips, then retraces to 200ma within the same trading day.
This situation often leads to a normal trending day. Knowing this, you can adjust your strategy correspondingly. Bear in mind that it often indicates stability of the currency's value.

2. Normal Trending Day
The market experiences a normal trading day when the price of the currency starts slightly above or below 75ma, extends a little, then retraces to 75ma.
This indicates that a particular currency is stable and shows the least signs that you should adjust your positions.

3. Fast Trending Day
The market experiences a fast trending day when the price of the currency is slightly above or below 21ema, ascends or descends, then reverts back to 21ema.
This will indicate bullish movements of the factors affecting the currency's mother country. Such movements can be for the better, or for worse. A closer study of the trends in the currency's motherland is needed to determine the next course of action.

4. Big Range Day
This is when the highs and lows of the subject range are 20pips apart. It indicates instability in the currency. Again, this may be good or bad. Your strategy should be flexible enough for any eventuality.

Your forex day trading strategy should be anchored on vigilance, flexibility and caution. A news day can be a window to great things, or it can be a hole that will make your entire portfolio crumble.

Trading in the Forex Requires Some Caution

The Forex is characterized by its unpredictability and the liquidity because it deals with foreign currencies and each one's value influenced by their own country.

That's why anyone who is greatly considering joining the Forex trade should think twice, thrice and maybe even ten times before doing so. This is not an arena for the weak and nervous.
The Forex is a very complex financial arena and only those with enough knowledge, experience and financial capability can join the foray.
Managing the risk factors is a priority task for those professionals who do this everyday. They direct and manage accounts from their investors, full confidence is placed on them and their client's success is also their success.

Some professional Forex brokers have placed high value on their credibility. The more clients they have, the more they earn as well. They make a profit by eating a slice of their client's profit. If they have made a name for themselves in the Forex trade, they don’t need to go look for clients; the clients will look for them and invest.
There are those, however, who want to manage their own portfolios. A word of caution though -- educate yourself first about the trade.

Learn the ropes and tricks of the game before throwing your hat in the ring. Try to gain access to many self-learn and self-study websites that can impart their knowledge with you.
Try out the website of the Federal Commodities Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), there they offer consumer reports as well as articles about applicable laws in Forex trading.
Many Forex management firms maintain a website that offers free online tutorials and brochures. You may need all the educational information about the Forex that you can get your hands on.

They may not outright say it, but the best and the finest and most skilled Forex traders have learned all the secrets of the game. From trading signals technical indicators, and theories that could explain about the market behavior.
When you have mastered these skills, you can have a more accurate prediction of the direction of the market resulting to lower risks and higher profits. Even when dealing with money managers, they have to be knowledgeable about the trade so they can be on top of their investments.

What is Currency Trading?

In its basic form, currency trading, also known as "forex trading," is simply that--trading money.

It involves trading one currency for another, such as U.S. dollars for the Euro.
The exchange rate is known as the foreign-exchange rate, forex rate, or FX rate and is one of the largest markets in the world, trading trillions of U.S. dollars each day.

Currency trading gained enormous popularity in the 1990s, and continues today. One reason this type of trading is so popular is that it can be done from a computer, 24 hours a day. There are fewer currencies to trade with, which makes learning the practice much easier (as opposed to learning about the many stock options available). The most commonly traded currencies are the U.S. dollar, the Japanese yen, and the British pound.

Currencies are traded in pairs. The trader buys the one that he or she believes will appreciate in value over the other. Currency fluctuates as there is demand for it. Interest rates tend to be an indication of a currency's demand. The higher a country's interest rate, the higher demand. However, countries will sometimes try to create demand for a currency by changing interest rates. The well-informed trader needs to conduct research and make educated guesses on a currency's future.
