Buying, Selling and the Exchange Rate

International trade is now a part of our everyday lives and the world we live in. Almost every time we make a purchase we are participating in the global economy and indirectly with the Forex trading systems. A currency exchanger is involved in most products and their components that come to our store shelves from all over the world. The foreign exchange rate market, or the "FOREX" market, is where the buying and selling of different currencies takes place. The price of one currency in terms of another is called an exchange rate. There are two reasons to buy and sell currencies, usually handled through a Forex brokerage. Approximately 5% of daily transactions come from companies and governments that buy or sell products and services in a foreign country, normally trading through Forex online. The remaining 95% is trading for profit. The foreign exchange rate market is considered an Over The Counter (OTC) or 'interbank' market, due to the fact that transactions are conducted between two counterparts over the telephone or via an electronic network. It is a global market build from forex brokerage firms that has no one central office or position. Forex online is one of the most common methods of trading within the market. This has created a market demand for an online stock broker , Forex dealers and a currency exchanger service. At NorthFinance we assist and guide our customers in trading with Forex online , offering a range of services to suit every customer's need.
