Make Money By Trading Forex

The object of Forex trading is to exchange one currency for another in the expectation that the price will change so that the currency you bought will increase in value compared to the one you sold.
For Example they are in pairs GBP/USD .
Here GBP is Base Currency
Here USD is Quote Currency

Long/Short
--------------
First, you should determine whether you want to buy or sell.

If you want to buy (which actually means buy the base currency and sell the quote currency), you want the base currency to rise in value and then you would sell it back at a higher price. In trader's talk, this is called "going long" or taking a "long position". Just remember: long = buy.

If you want to sell (which actually means sell the base currency and buy the quote currency), you want the base currency to fall in value and then you would buy it back at a lower price. This is called "going short" or taking a "short position". Short = sell.

Bid/Ask
-----------
The bid is always lower than the ask price.

The bid is the price in which the dealer is willing to buy the base currency in exchange for the quote currency. This means the bid is the price in which you the trader will sell.

The ask is the price at which the dealer will sell the base currency in exchange for the quote currency. This means the ask is the price in which you the trader will buy.

Demo Trading
---------------

You can open a demo account for free with most Forex brokers. This account has the full capabilities of a "real" account including live market rates, access to real-time market analysis, and the ability to execute trades off streaming prices. Why is it free you ask? It’s because they want you to learn the ins and outs of their trading platform so you’ll fall in love with it and deposit real money. The demo account allows you to learn about the Forex markets and test your trading skills without any risk.
