The Forex Markets : The Lure Of The Forex Trade
Currencies that are traded by institutions and banks are done so in the foreign exchange market. The foreign exchange market has the largest traded volume of any market in the world. The amount traded per day is in the vicinity of 4 trillion dollars. Even the mighty New York Stock Exchange only trades a paltry 30 billion a day in comparison. When it comes to size, it has the New York Stock Exchange beaten very soundly. Further growth is expected due to the popularity of forex trading via the internet.
