FOREX trading seems complex, but the basics are simple. It involves trading currency pairs, like GBP/USD, to profit from price changes. The first currency is the base; the second is the quote. Prices move in pips, the smallest unit of change. Major pairs, like EUR/USD, are best for beginners due to low spreads. Use a broker with a user friendly platform like MetaTrader. Leverage lets you control larger positions with less money, but it increases risk. Always set a stop loss to limit losses and a take profit to secure gains. Understand bid and ask prices: you buy at the ask, sell at the bid. Practice on a demo account to learn without risk. Study charts to spot trends and patterns. Start with small trades and focus on learning, not profits. Join this AMA to ask about charts, brokers, or strategies and kickstart your FOREX journey!
