About The Market Size And Liquidity
Synopsis
There are several features that make the foreign exchange market rather unique and a little complicating. Thus it is not really a suitable endeavor for the faint hearted.
Among the elements it involves are the actual trading which is done in large volumes, the extreme liquidity conditions of the market, the large number and variety of traders and commodities available at any given time, the geographical dispersion of its participants, the long trading hours.
The aspect that makes all these so volatile is the variety of possible effects the exchange rates can have on the actual trading or transactions.
