Understanding What Forex Trading Is All About

Author: Andy Owings

First , forex trading, like other speculation forms , has one main goal; bring in money! So if we start with that premise , that making money is our goal , then in a massive global market market, how do we do this ?  First you must decide whether you’re a fundamental or technical trader, or perhapse both . Later we’ll have more articles on this topic , but now let’s just assume you like keeping up with current events and world affairs and you are more attracted to fundamental trading . Then you have to ask, what are the single most important fundamental factors that drive currency movements ?  If the fundamentals is what you’re focusing on , there is one thing above all else that will drive your forex trading decisions ; the interest rate differentials between various countries.

What exactly is an interest rate differential ? Great question ! Imagine that the Australian Dollar has a 4% short term interest rate. Meaning that if you are a debtor and you live in Australia this base rate helps to determine what you pay on credit cards, mortgages, and more . This also means that if you are a creditor you can use this 4% short term interest rate as your base rate that decides how much your investments make; such as CDs from your local bank . Then suppose that the short term interest rate of the US Dollar, which the Federal Reserve sets , at 1% . How are currency movements affected by all this ?  If 4% is the short term rate of the Australian Dollar and the US Dollar short term rate is at 1% it’s all as simple as this : a higher yield is sought by investors and since Australia provides more interest they move their funds “down-under” or as the Aussies say, “down-unda mate” . This shift in investments of capital flows leaving the US and going to Australia mean that the US Dollar will weaken because supply is larger than demand and the Australian Dollar will strengthen because supply is smaller than demand . The basics of economic fundamentals are working; where there is more demand for something its value will rise .  When you think about your own forex trading and your next position, just ask yourself , ” what country has the most liklihood of having higher rates moving forward and what country is likely to have lower rates moving forward ?” Purchase currency that is the high interest rate favorite and currency favored for lower interest rates should be sold and increase profits as investors go towards stronger currency and leave the weaker one . This is the essence of forex trading.

Economic Concepts in Modern Western Culture

Author: kinhomchan

Some economic concepts in modern Western culture do not correspond closely with conceptions and customs in many preliterate societies. Ownership is a case in point. Complete possession of an exclusive right to use something in an economic context, such as land, a dwelling, or a boat, is rare, if not wholly lacking, in preliterate societies (although one might have exclusive rights to a dream, spell, or charm). In general, one has merely the right to use or occupy a tract of land or a house; when its use has terminated, anyone can take it over. In some societies it might be said that a boat “belonged” to the men who made it or even to the individual who initiated its construction. But anyone else in the community would have the right to use it when the “owners” (the men who made it) were not using it. It is the right to use, rather than exclusive and absolute possession, that is significant; there is no such thing as absentee ownership in primitive society.
 
A band or tribe “holds” the land it occupies; here again, it is tenure rather than ownership that is significant; the land “belongs” to Nature, or Mother Earth; people merely hold and use it. There is usually an intimate relationship between the people and “their” land. Navajo Indians fell on their knees and kissed the earth when they were returned to their former territory after forcible detention in an alien land. Land is defended against outsiders, except when they are accepted as guests, but the significant thing is not that the outsiders do not own the land but that they pose a threat to those who occupy it.
 
In some tribes there is a distinct conception that the land held “belongs” to the tribe, the chief of which allots plots or tracts to individuals or households for their use. But when use terminates, the land reverts to the tribal domain.
 
During the latter part of the 19th century there was considerable discussion of “primitive communism”. This doctrine came to be interpreted as meaning that private properly, the private right to hold or use, was nonexistent in primitive society. It was extended also to communism in wives and children in some tribes; this was interpreted to be a vestige of a former stage of “primordial promiscuity.” Many ethnologists, however, launched a vigorous attack upon “the doctrine of primitive communism.” Some of the conceptions of earlier anthropologists  such as group marriage  were shown to be unwarranted in the light of later research.
 
Today, with these polemics well in the past, the situation with regard to property rights in tribal societies may be summarized as follows. Tenure and use, rather than ownership in fee simple, were tie significant concepts and practices. Private, or personal, possession of goods and use of land were recognized. But possession and right were qualified by the rights and obligations of Vamp: one tad an obligation both to give and to receive foe batty of YJSVdared, according to specific rules. In a de facto sense, things belonged to the body of kindred; rights of possession and use were regulated by customs of kinship. In some cultures a borrower was not obliged to return an object borrowed, on the theory that if a person could afford to lend something, he relinquished his right to its possession. The mode of life in preliterate society based upon kinship and functioning in accordance with the principles of cooperation and mutual aid, did indeed justify the adjective communal; it was the noun communism that was resented  if not feared  because of its Marxist connotation.
 
One of the most important, as well as characteristic, features of the economic life of preliterate societies, as contrasted with modern civilizations, is this: no individual and no class or group in tribal society was denied access to the resources of nature; all were free to exploit them. This is, of course, in sharp contrast to civil society in which private ownership by some, or a class, is the means of excluding others  slaves, serf, a proletariat  from the exploitation and enjoyment of the resources of nature. It is this freedom of access, the freedom to exploit and to enjoy the resources of nature that has given primitive society its characteristics of freedom and equality. And, being based upon kinship ties, it had fraternity as well.

Acetrader-Daily Market Outlook 29-6-2010

Author: AceTraderfx
Market Review – 28/06/2010 21:26 GMT
Euro tumbles on ECB loan worries
The euro weakened across the board on Monday as investors were worried over the funding tensions in Europe as a lending facility provided by ECB would expire this week.    The single currency remained under immense selling pressure on Monday as banks must repay 442 billion euros to the ECB on this coming Thursday and investors were worried this would create a potential liquidity shortfall in the European financial system. In addition, traders bought the Swiss franc aggressively after SNB’s Danthine said that deflationary risks had disappeared and Swiss exports had proven to be robust despite a stronger currency. Italy’s auction of government bonds was met with tepid demand on Monday and this also added further pressure on euro.    Although the single currency edged higher to 1.2398 in Asian morning following Friday’s rally to 1.2396 in New York trading, euro retreated sharply from there and remained under pressure in Europe and then U.S. session. Intra-day decline picked up more downward momentum after Richmond Fed President Jeffry Lacker said that a solid U.S. economic recovery might soon enable the U.S. Federal Reserve to drop its promise to keep interest rate low for an ‘extended period’. The single currency eventually weakened to 1.2265 in NY afternoon. Cross-selling in euro also pressured price as eur/chf tumbled to a fresh lifetime low of 1.3329 and eur/gbp tumbled to 0.8122, the lowest level since November 2008.    Versus the Japanese yen, the greenback initially edged higher to 89.47 in European morning but retreated from there and fell to 89.06 in NY morning on cross buying of yen vs euro. However, the pair rebounded after Lacker’s comments and ended the day at 89.36.    The British pound extended Friday’s rise and traded with a firm undertone throughout the day. Despite staging a pullback to 1.5018 in European morning, cable eventually rose to 1.5130 in NY afternoon on Monday. Cable was supported as Barclays said on Friday that the British pound may be attractive due to government’s tough stance in improving the nation’s finances. BOE’s Sentance also said on Monday that Britain’s tough budget would not remove the need to start raising interest rate ‘ now ‘.    In other news, at the end the G20 summit meeting over the weekend, leaders agreed to cut budget deficits amid the uneven and fragile economic recovery in many countries. The leaders agreed to pursue higher capital requirements for banks once economic recoveries could take hold. US President Obama welcomed the deficit-cutting goal set by the G20 nations.However, market showed little reaction to these comments.     Economic data to be released on Tuesday include :Japan Household spending , Unemployment rate , Industrial prod’n , EU Business climate, Economic sentiment , Consumer Confidence , Canada PPI , U.S. Consumer confidence.

Experienced Forex Traders Use Forex Automated Software to Make Big Profits

Author: Wilson Trat

The objective of this article is give you a clear understanding of how forex automatic trading software works, and the reasons why it works. This way, you can make an wise decision whether or not you want to use it to make money to yourself.
The foreign exchange market is unique because of its:
* huge trading volume (The average daily turnover in global foreign exchange markets is estimated at $3.98 trillion, as of April 2007), leading to high liquidity
* geographical dispersion
* operation 24 hours a day except weekends
In the past, forex traders used to outsource their trades to a full service brokerage. This, of course, costs money and you have to look for a broker that you can trust, which is not a easy task.
Nowadays with the evolution of the trading softwares we have access to a huge advantage and that is why close to 50% of all currency traders are now using forex robots to see significant returns on their investments in this market.
One of the biggest advantages is that the forex market runs 24/7, but humans don’t. An automatic trading software is unaffected by a person’s mental,physical and emotional circumstance, thus the trading operation is quicker and more diversified. This is where a forex robot comes in.
Since it applies advanced algorithms projected by extremely skilled professional traders and money managers, the operation of the automated software is increased based on the experience and expertise of the designers.
This software constantly scans and analyzes the market using real-time forex market information 24 hours/day, looking for reliable, high probability trading opportunities. When it detects them, it invests until the moment the trade becomes unprofitable. Very simple and very powerful.
You do not need to pay a commission to the brokers, and you can start trading in the forex market even if you are a complete beginner. By applying a forex software system, even the novice trader can achieve high economic success.
A great advantage about this trading software is that the risk is very low. You are able to run a practice account first before starting to trade with real money. In this way you can see the forex robot in action not risking a cent of your own money.
Another advantage is that the forex software system do not experience emotional influences,thus removing another big risk factor.
You can control the software if you want to be part of the trading decisions. But it is better to leave the forex robot to do its job unless you have a serious experience in forex trading. The automated forex system returns much higher profits when left alone to do its task.
