Definition

Forex (foreign exchange) trading is the buying and selling of currency pairs in the global currency market. Traders speculate on whether one currency will strengthen or weaken against another.

How Currency Pairs Work

Currency pairs show the value of one currency relative to another (e.g., EUR/USD). The first currency is the base; the second is the quote. Price movements reflect economic conditions, interest rates, and market sentiment.
