Forex Market Analysis
November 25th, 2007 Shabu
Do not read me wrong. I meant Forex Analysis and not Forensic Analysis. Forensics is the art of dissecting the dead, while Forex is the art of buying and selling currency against another. My apologies if I confused you.
Alright, lets move ahead.
The Forex market analysis works just the way Stock market analysis does. Here it is all about the currencies, the factors that influence them, their movements etc. It is inevitably important for traders to learn the art of analysis if they want to succeed in this market. One also has to understand the fact that, it is an inexact science. The rules are very dynamic and work based on market psychology.
Are You Better Off Playing The Ponies?
Forex markets may remind one of Horse racing. Nevertheless, in horse racing, the liability is faster than in the forex market. If the jockey loses focus even for a second, he is sure to lose the race. It isn’t the case in the Forex market. The market movements are based on analysis of the situation. The reaction maybe fast, but the time taken to announce the news isn’t.
Certain people think that the forex market is safer than stock market because it involves money and everyone needs money. They believe the stock markets are not stable because not everyone needs a Hewlett Packard Share, while everyone needs money. The truth is contrary to this. The factors that affect the forex market are very sensitive and strong, like an earthquake, wars, recessions, inflation and other natural and man made disasters. Everything related to a country’s economy affects the forex market.
There are many commercial Forex analysis services today in the market. I explained this in detail in my previous post. Be careful who you go with. Follow the guidelines I gave in my last post. Follow trial and error to some extent, but always look for third party recommendations.
Get into online chat groups related to forex or join yahoo groups. By joining these communities, you can get better educated on the service available as well as new analytical trends in the market. It is important to stay updated always.
In addition to this, there are free services from reputed companies like Reuters, CNN, Bloomberg.com that provide on time market analysis. Their basic services are offered free of cost. These are companies that you can depend on all the time because they are all a household name. They simply can’t afford to cheat you.
