The main purpose of getting involve in FOREX trading, just like every form of trade, is the opportunity to buy one currency low, and to be able to sell another currency high. The simplest tip you can get is to always remember to buy low and sell high. There is no point in engaging a trade if you will not profit from it.
In FOREX trading, each currency is given a three letter code like the American (United States of America) dollar has the code USD, European Euro is assigned EUR, Australia Dollars is AUD, China, Yuan Renminbi is CNY, Chile, Pesos is CLP, Philippines, Peso is PHP, so on and so forth. Because many currencies like dollars and peso have the same names, it is important that you know the code of the country’s currency you are trading with. If a currency has the same code, it means that they have the same currency, just like the European Euro that is a standard across Europe, which is given the code EUR. Whether it is Réunion, Europe or Saint-Martin, Euro has the same code--EUR.
It is also important to pay attention to the trading hours on the market you intend to trade with. Since this is a global industry, many of the markets open and close at different hours. The market in Sydney, Australia opens at 4:00 pm. Tokyo, Japan opens at 7. :00 pm, Singapore and Hong Kong markets open at the same time at 9:00 pm. Frankfurt and London opens at 2:00 and 3:00 am, respectively for the European market. New York opens at 4:00 am. All these times are based on Eastern Standard Time.
