Forex

As I do a lot of reading these days (^_^) regarding forex trading, I found out one simple explanation about forex trading. I thought to share it here in my blog...

Lets start with 4 major currency pairs:

EUR/USD; GBP/USD; USD/JPY and USD/CHF

In both of the first two currency pairs (EUR/USD and GBP/USD), USD works as money. 
The first two currency in the currency pairs is known as the COMMODITY and second one is the MONEY.
So when you buy EUR/USD, it means you pay USD to buy Euro. 
On the other hand if you sell EUR/USD, it means you pay Euro to buy USD.
