The "UGLY" Beauty Contest

I remember reading one of the report in the local newspaper which the statement made about currency market that this year will be just like the "ugly" beauty contest.According to the report that it is very alarming that the US Federal Reserve chairman publicly say that more interest rate cuts may be necessary because the US economic outlook has worsened. This statement is actually worsened the global economy,evident from the projections made by most countries of a much slower growth pace compared with 2007.
Can a country withstand this impact depends much likely on the rate of dependencies to the US economy. Countries which have greater diversity of market dependencies other than the US has greater chance of surviving through the effect of the US economic recession or may perform at slower growth.
However the beauty of the ugly might turn out to be the winner for some smart traders. So look out for one.

Forex? What is it, anyway?

The market
The currency trading (FOREX) market is the biggest and fastest growing market on earth. Its daily turnover is more than 2.5 trillion dollars. The participants in this market are banks, organizations, investors and private individuals, just like you. (click here to read full market background by Easy-Forex™).


The goods (merchandise)
Markets are places to trade goods, and the same goes with FOREX. The Forex goods are the currencies of various countries. You buy Euro, paying with US dollars, or you sell Japanese Yens for Canadian dollars. That's all.

How does one profit in Forex?
Obviously, buy cheap and sell for more! The profit potential comes from the fluctuations (changes) in the currency exchange market. The nice thing about the FOREX market, is that regular daily fluctuations, say - around 1%, are multiplied by 100! (in general, Easy-Forex™ offers trading ratios from 1:50 to 1:200).
