Two Great Advantages of Forex Trading

There are a number of advantages Forex traders find once they start trading for real the Forex markets. On of the main advantages when deciding to trade for a living is that there is no need to have a license or certification. Everything you need to know is basically how to sell high and buy low. That's all you need, and of course a solid understanding of how the markets behave and the kind of indicators that can help you in your daily battle with the forex market.

But this is not the only advantage you get when trading Forex, compared to other ways of investment and speculation (Stocks and Commodities). You have a whole bunch of advantages over these other options; two of them are these:



1): The FOREX market is the largest financial market in the world.

It is known that this market has an approximate daily trading volume of over $1.5 trillion, the spot Forex market can, amazingly, absorb trading sizes that dwarf the capacity of any other market. In fact, when compared with the approximate $50 billion daily market for equities or the $30 billion futures market, it becomes crystal clear that this market gives you, and millions of other FOREX traders around the world an almost infinite trading liquidity and flexibility.

2): FOREX is a TRUE 24-hour currency market.

The FOREX Markets never sleep and never stop having transactions being performed every hour, every minute. Trading positions can be entered and exited at any moment, around the world, around the clock, six days a week. There is no waiting for an opening bell as in the case of trading stocks in Wall Street. It is a 24-hour, continuous electronic currency exchange that never closes (all this thanks to the internet). This characteristic of the FX market should make it very desirable for you if you want to trade on a part-time basis, because you can choose when you want to trade: morning, noon or night. More information about this can be found in other of my articles.
