Currency pairs

Every Forex price quotes one currency against another. Learn to read the pair and half of the confusion disappears.

What is Forex?
The global exchange of one currency for another. It runs 24 hours a day, five days a week, and is the most traded market in the world.
Currency pair
Two currencies quoted together, for example EUR/USD. The price tells you how much of the second currency one unit of the first is worth.Example · EUR/USD at 1.0850 means €1 buys $1.0850.
Base currency
The first currency in the pair — the one you are buying or selling.
Quote currency
The second currency in the pair — the one the price is measured in.
Major pairs
Pairs that include the US dollar and a large economy: EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF. Tightest spreads, deepest liquidity.
Minor pairs
Pairs between large currencies without the US dollar, such as EUR/GBP or GBP/JPY. Slightly wider spreads, larger swings.
Exotic pairs
A major currency against a smaller economy, such as USD/ZAR or USD/TRY. Wide spreads and sharp moves — not a beginner's starting point.

Prices and costs

Before you can measure a profit, you need to know exactly what you are paying to be in the trade.

Bid price
The price at which you can sell. It is always the lower of the two quoted prices.
Ask price
The price at which you can buy. It is always the higher of the two.
Spread
The gap between bid and ask — your immediate cost of entering a trade.Example · Bid 1.0849 / Ask 1.0850 is a 1-pip spread.
Pip
The standard smallest price step in most pairs — the fourth decimal place (the second for JPY pairs). Profit and risk are usually measured in pips.
Lot size
The size of your position. A standard lot is 100,000 units, a mini lot 10,000, a micro lot 1,000.
Position size
How large a position you take, chosen so that your stop loss costs a fixed, planned percentage of your account — not a number picked by feel.

Orders and execution

A trade is a plan, not a click. These are the instructions you give the market before you enter.

Buy (long)
You expect the base currency to strengthen. You profit if price rises above your entry.
Sell (short)
You expect the base currency to weaken. You profit if price falls below your entry.
Market order
Enter immediately at the current price. Simple, but you accept whatever price is available.
Pending order
An instruction to enter only if price reaches a level you chose in advance — the disciplined way to trade a plan.
Stop loss
A pre-set exit that closes a losing trade at a level where your idea is proven wrong. Non-negotiable on every position.
Take profit
A pre-set exit that banks profit at a planned level. Many traders stage it across two or three targets.

Risk, leverage and market conditions

Survival first. Everything an experienced trader does is designed to keep losses small enough to keep trading.

Leverage
Borrowed market exposure from your broker. It increases position size for a given balance — and increases loss at exactly the same rate.
Margin
The part of your balance reserved to hold an open position. Running out of free margin closes positions automatically.
Risk management
Fixed risk per trade (commonly 0.5–2% of the account), a stop on every position, and a reward that justifies that risk — usually at least 1:2.
Trading sessions
Sydney, Tokyo, London and New York. The London and New York overlap is normally the most active period of the day.
Economic news
Scheduled releases such as interest-rate decisions, inflation and employment data. They move price quickly, so plan around them rather than being surprised.
Volatility
How much price moves in a given period. Higher volatility means larger opportunity and larger risk, so position size should shrink as volatility rises.
