What Is Forex

Forex is the international foreign exchange market usually known as FOREX or FX.

The Forex market is one of the youngest financial markets (Forex has been functioning since the 70s). However, it is the largest in volumes and the most fast-growing market. Lets understand Forex with an example below:

If you have ever traveled to another country, you usually had to find a currency exchange booth at the airport, and then exchange the money you have in your wallet or purse into the currency of the country you are visiting. You go up to the counter and notice a screen displaying different exchange rates for different currencies. You find Japanese yen and think to yourself, My one dollar is worth 100 yen

When you do this, you have essentially participated in the Forex market. You have exchanged one currency for another. Or in Forex trading terms, youve sold dollars and bought yen.

Before you fly back home, you stop by the currency exchange booth to exchange the yen that you have left over and notice the exchange rates have changed. Its these changes in the exchanges rates that allow you to make money in the foreign exchange market.

CF Markets allows you to enact the same buying and selling of currencies as you would in the above example but with the comfort of being able to do so on you computer, phone, tablet etc. The flexible rates we present for the currencies give way for a great opportunity to start trading and earn profits today.
