In our last video, we discussed the meaning of the bid price, the ask price, the spread and what is a SWAP. In the current video, we’ll have a look at other key definitions. BALANCE is the amount of money you have in your account. Unrealised profit or losses are ignored. For example, if you have USD 5000 in your account and 200 USD unrealised losses from open trades, your balance is still considered as 5000 USD. EQUITY on the other hand is the amount of money that you will have in your account, if you simultaneously close all your open positions. Equity = Balance +P/L. Following from the previous […]

In our last lesson we walked through the different types of pending orders. Today we will discuss the meaning of the bid price, the ask price, the spread and what is a SWAP. Until now, we referred to an exchange rate as being quoted in one price. In practice, things are different. When you start using a trading platform, you will see that exchange rates are quoted in two prices. The first price in the quote is the “bid price”. It is the price at which the broker is willing to buy from you. In simple words, it is the price you sell. The second price is the “ask” or […]

In our last lesson, we explained what types of orders are available and divided them to market orders and pending orders. Today, we are taking a deep dive into the subcategories of pending orders. There are pending orders to enter the market and this means that a certain condition has to be met for the position to be initiate. There are four types of pending orders to enter the market that a trader has at their disposal. The first pending order to enter the market is the buy stop. This is a pending order to buy at a price that is higher from the current market price. For example, let’s […]

In our last lesson, we discussed how we measure a change in the value of an FX pair the pip and the pip’s monetary value including the origin of ticks and the role they play. In this one, we will be discussing the different types of orders that are available to a trader. Before we get into the specific details lets ask ourselves a question, what is an order? An order is practically the initiation or the termination of a trading position in the trading platform (MT4) for any given trading instrument. It’s essentially the command that is sent to a broker in order to start or to stop trading […]
pipsとpips値

We have discussed in our previous video the trading sizes, and now we will discuss how we measure the change in the value of a trading instrument. In FX pairs the smallest amount of change in a currency pair is called a pip. So should an exchange rate move that movement is measured in pips. Actually, the term pip according to many analysts, is an acronym that is derived from the words “percentage in a percentage”. That’s why the pip is placed in the fourth decimal place and equals to a change of 0.0001. For example, if EUR/USD is priced at 1.1110 today and tomorrow is priced at 1.1121, that […]

In the last lesson, we discussed how leverage is used to trade on a margin. That would make sense given that currency pairs are traded in fixed contract sizes. The standard size is called “a lot” and is equal to 100,000 units of the base currency. For example, a lot in USD/JPY would be worth 100,000 USD, because in this pair the USD is the base currency, while a lot in GBP/USD is worth 100,000 GBP, because in this case the GBP is the base currency, as is the EUR in EUR/USD, hence a lot in EUR/USD would be worth 100,00 EUR. There are however, different subdivisions of the standard […]
証拠金とレバレッジ

In a previous video, we noted that you can trade in the Forex market via CFDs by committing only a small fragment of your funds through the use of leverage. Leverage is an investment strategy where the investor borrows capital to invest and if they are successful, they can return the borrowed funds and enjoy the profits. Leverage can be defined as having the ability to control a large amount of money using none or very little of your own money and borrowing the rest. So, in retail FX trading, where traders use Contracts For Difference to trade currency pairs via leverage the broker will set aside for example only […]
