There Is Money To Be Made In Forex Trading, But It’s Risky For A First-Time Investor
Currency trading is done on a much greater proportion than any other kind of trading in the world. Some 1.9 trillion dollars are exchanged every single day. About 73 percent of all currency trading is done by 10 intercontinental financial institutions with names you’re familiar with: Merrill Lynch, Citigroup, and so on. Local banks and other financial institutions account for another chunk of forex trading, and contracts by “day traders” — regular individuals, people like you and me — account for only 2 percent of the total.
