what is the forex?

hi hrapmusic. I've been trading forex for almost a year in demo and live. It's interesting but can be taxing :-) check out www.babypips.com for all the basics and then check out some of the online forums for more specific info. BTW alot of new traders but 'systems' on ebay etc. I recommend against that. sometimes my curiosity gets the best of me and I buy one, and it's almost always been more money and less quality system than you can find for free on forums. Good luck :-) Seavog

Forex is basically the market concerned with foreign exchanges. You trade on whether you think an economy and therefore its exchange rate is going to improve or not. There are so many sites out there which are itching to help you and its something that im looking into and trying to learn. The key thing here is to really learn the ropes before you make any real trades. Most of the trading platforms have demo accounts so you can 'play' with virtual money before diving in with your hard earnt myLot cash lol.
