FOREX Vocabulary
As with any training, you have the opportunity to expand your vocabulary. As a beginner, you should know what the following terms are all about, before you start trading. You've probably read most of the terms before, however, a small summary never hurts.
What else you should know
Before we go any further, we want you to be absolutely clear about the following points.:
- Every FOREX trader, and by that we really all mean, sometimes lose when trading. Most beginners lose their money, due to poor planning and practice, or because there are no personal rules for use and risk.
- Never trade with money whose loss you can't take away: Do not take money that you absolutely need to pay the next electricity bill or what to buy to eat to top up your FOREX account. The risk is simply too great, that you will be left empty-handed afterwards.
