The Forex Robot World Cup Fusion V 1. 1A5 min Feb 15, 2010Arguably the largest and most important market in the world is the global currency market. If, hypothetically, all trading in equities, fixed income, derivatives, and commodities were to suddenly cease, currency trading would still continue, as people, businesses, and governments would still have to pay for various goods and services between each other. To do so, they would still require forex trading in order to transform and move currencies from one country to another. Forex trading is the “other side of the coin” of all global trade; no goods or services move from one country to another with a corresponding foreign currency transaction. In 1971, the majority of countries ceased linking their currencies to the value of gold. Once the international standard for nearly all currencies was removed, the values of currencies became based on the relevant value of other countries’ currencies. This enabled countries’ central banks, and each country’s government, to tailor their monetary and fiscal policy with an eye towards stabilization, or valuation or devaluation, of their currency. As a result of the move away from gold as a pricing standard, the forex trading market and surrounding industry blossomed. With the exponential growth in forex trading volume came a corresponding increase in liquidity and volatility, as well as a dramatic increase in trading and pricing speed. Making the forex trading market even more complex is the fact that, unlike other securities markets, it is a truly twenty four hour market.
