Forex Trading

Somewhere in the world, right now, currencies are being bought and sold—24 hours a day, five days a week, in the largest and most liquid market on the planet. This course is your introduction to the forex market: how it works, who trades it, and what makes currency trading fundamentally different from trading stocks.

You'll start with the basics of currency pairs—understanding how currencies are always traded relative to one another (like USD/INR or EUR/USD), and what it actually means when a pair moves up or down. You'll learn key concepts like pips, spreads, and lot sizes, the essential vocabulary you'll need before placing a single trade.

You'll also explore what actually drives currency prices—from interest rate decisions and inflation data to geopolitical events and central bank policy—and why forex often reacts to global macroeconomic news faster and more directly than the stock market does.

Since currency markets operate around the clock across different global sessions (Asian, European, and US), you'll learn how trading activity and volatility shift throughout the day, and why timing matters just as much as direction when trading currencies.

By the end of this course, you'll have a solid grounding in how the currency market functions—giving you the foundation to understand exchange rate movements and, if you choose, to start exploring forex trading with real confidence.
