The Tower Of Forex - Terminology To Reach Each Other

By Tom K Kearns

God scattered the people and separated them by foreign language when he discovered the Tower of Babel. Now Forex citizens are being separated from the rest of us by terminology. It is a language that can easily be understood amongst the masses of Forex traders, while the rest of us are left speechless.

As I set out to learn the language of the Forex player's world all I heard at first was babble. It all seemed to make perfect sense to the foreign exchange inhabitants. It is a language of shortened phrases, acronyms, and idioms that explain what is needed during the speeches of exchanges and trades. It is a language known best by traders. One that must be known and understood by any new or experience Forex civilian.

You will be left in the dust not being educated and fully prepped in this speech used to converse with fellow speakers. The journey into a career of a Forex trader can be forgotten if confused by the terminology or not aware of the sayings they use. For now at least.

Forex is the leading financial market of the world and trades all global currencies in real time. To shine in any way in the Forex market the basic language is a must.

Basic terminology

The basic terminology of the Forex globe must be known to get by in the utmost way.

Bullish, if you are bullish you have a general tendency to trade on the long side of a currency pair and believe that pair will increase in price.

Bearish is having a general tendency to trade on the short side of a currency pair and believing that pair will decrease in price.

Going long refers to buying a currency pair with the hope that the price will go up.

Going short means that you sell a currency that is not yet owned by you, the trader. The hope here is that the price will go down and you can but the currency pair back at a lower price than you sold it at.

Pip, as funny as it may sound, is popular as well. A pip is simply the smallest price change that a currency pair can make. It generally is equal to 10USD on full size lots of 100,000.

6) Range- the offering of information to the seller on the variety of prices offered; also gives the highest and lowest prices of the currencies.

A full range of definitions for the Forex language is offered on tons of websites and dictionaries. It is crucial to be prepped on the terminology needed for conversation if you are interested in a Forex trading career. Otherwise you will find yourself a lost soul roaming around, incapable of speaking to any fellow Forex inhabitants. Of course you don't want that. - 23212
