How forex trading works

Currencies are quoted in pairs. When you buy EUR/USD you buy euros and sell US dollars at the same time, and you profit if the euro rises against the dollar. When you sell, you profit if it falls. Prices move in pips: for most pairs one pip is the fourth decimal place (0.0001), and for yen pairs it is the second (0.01).

With a CFD you never own the currency. You trade on the price change, which lets you go long or short with a margin deposit instead of the full contract value. One standard lot is 100,000 units of the base currency, and you can trade from 0.01 lots.

Majors, minors and exotics

Majors pair the US dollar with another leading currency (EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF, AUD/USD, USD/CAD, NZD/USD). They are the most liquid and usually have the tightest spreads. Minors, or crosses, leave the dollar out (EUR/GBP, GBP/JPY, AUD/NZD). Exotics pair a major with an emerging-market currency such as USD/MXN or USD/ZAR and tend to move more and cost more to trade.
