So why trade in Forex?
Forex is one of the biggest, if not, the biggest trading market of the world. This market is this big because everyone participates in it, including you, your mom and probably your neighbour. Any non-trader participates in it, because the Forex market is where you trade currencies. Every person who has exchanged their currency for money from a foreign country has (probably) unawarely traded in the Forex market. If you’ve ever traveled, you’ve probably exchanged your currency to a different one and when you engage in this transaction, you are actually trading in the Forex market.
Aside from the reason that a big market means bigger profits with small deposits. There are many more reasons why you should trade in Forex.
Increased interest
Interest in this market has increased, especially the last few years. This is because of the ability of trading online. Everyone can participate. That is why it has been decided that there should be supervision on this market from the SEC. This increases the trust in this market. More trust means more investors and this also means more profit.
Biggest market
So over the years the Forex market has become the biggest investing market in the world. Every day trillions of currencies is traded over the whole world. And the more trades, the more money you can make.
Working from home

What distinguishes the Forex market is that there isn’t a physical location for trading like the stock market. The Forex market is a ‘Over-The-Counter’ (OTC) market, this means that trading in this whole market is done electronically. So this is what enables you to work from home. A big reason to look into Forex. If you practice a lot you will be able to work from home.
