What is Forex?
Forex, or foreign exchange, is a marketplace for trading currencies. It is also the largest financial market in the world, where trillions of dollars are traded every day. Forex markets don’t rely on one central institution. Instead, forex is traded by a network of banks across four major forex trading centres in different time zones – New York, Sydney, Tokyo and London. This means you can trade forex all hours of a day.
Typical Trading Hours
New York
13:00 to 22:00 GMT
London
08:00 to 17:00 GMT
Tokyo
00:00 to 09:00 GMT
Sydney
2:00 to
07:00 GMT
Many institutions around the world now trade 24hrs a day & the trading hours when two sessions overlap:
London & New York
12:00 to 16:00 GMT
Tokyo & London
07:00 to 09:00 GMT
Sydney & Tokyo
00:00 to 06:00 GMT

$5 trillion a day.
The forex market trades 5 trillion dollars a day and is far more active – with higher volumes – than stock market trading. Forex is popular because it’s accessible and easy to understand. All you need is an online account to begin trading from any part of the world.
How it Works?
Forex trading involves currency pairs, like USD or EUR. It always involves selling one currency to buy the other. For example, if you sell EUR to buy USD, you’ll make a profit if the US dollar strengthens. If it weakens, you’ll lose money on the trade, because your initial Euros were more valuable.
Why do currencies move?
How do they strengthen or weaken? Currencies change due to any number of factors. They reflect market sentiment, news reports, central bank decisions, economic data and so much more. As a forex trader, you predict price changes for currency, and use these fluctuations to make a profit.

A trading example
So let’s say that you’ve looked at market reports, or read the financial headlines. And you’ve decided that the US dollar is going to move against the Euro. In particular, you think that the US dollar will fall against the Euro, and the Euro will grow stronger. So you pick your EUR/USD pair. The first currency in the pair is your base currency, i.e. the currency you decide to buy and sell in. So EUR/USD = 1.25 means that one EUR is exchanged for 1.25 USD, for example.
Using Leverage to Amplify
With RegalX, we give you up to 1:1000 leverage on selected products. This means that for every dollar you put in, we multiply that by a thousand to make your trade more powerful. Another way of stating the same thing is to say that your margin requirement for this trade is 0.1% i.e. 0.1% of the trade must be your own money.
In Meta Trader 4, one lot is 100,000 units of currency. So to buy 1 lot, you’d need to invest EUR 100 – which we will amplify. Once you’ve bought 100,000 EUR/USD, let’s look at two outcomes.
Instance 1
Making a profit
Initial EUR/USD price = 1.3552
The dollar falls, which means the EUR/USD ratio changes to 1.3580, i.e. you get more dollars to every Euro.
The difference is 1.3580 – 1.3552 = 28 ticks (A tick is the smallest possible price movement in any market). In this market, a tick is 1/10,000 of a unit.
So, your profit on the trade:
= 100,000 units x 28/10,000
= 100,000 x 0.0028
= USD 280
Instance 2
Making a loss
Initial EUR/USD price = 1.3552
The dollar rises, which means the EUR/USD ratio changes to 1.3515, i.e. you get fewer dollars to every Euro.
The difference is 1.3552 – 1.3515 = 37 ticks (A tick is the smallest possible price movement in any market). In this market, a tick is 1/10,000 of a unit.
So, your loss on the trade:
= 100,000 units x 37/10,000
= 100,000 x 0.0037
= USD 370
Note: Your profit or loss is expressed in the second currency – in this case USD.
Protect yourself against a major drop.
Keep yourself safe, and limit the downside of your trades by setting a stop-loss. A stop-loss order automatically closes your position at a certain price level. A cleverly-placed stop-loss price will be a few points below the price you purchased at.
Stop-losses can also be used to book profits – by automatically closing a trade if your chosen currency rises to a certain level.
