OneRoyal offers what is called Margin FX products &#8211; which means we offer trade on the price movements of the forex market, where your profit or loss is a cash adjustment on your platform &#8211; not physically delivered.<\/p>\n<p>When you see a certain currency as &#8216;cheap&#8217;, you can buy that currency in relation to another; you&#8217;re anticipating it will increase in value, after which you can sell it again. This also works &#8211; but the other way &#8211; if you consider the currency to be &#8216;expensive&#8217;.<\/p>\n<p>Currencies are traded in pairs. The first currency in the pair is called the Base currency; it&#8217;s the one you&#8217;re either buying or selling. The second currency of the pair is the Counter currency that you&#8217;re trading the base currency against.<\/p>\n<p>For example, when you buy the EURUSD, it means that you&#8217;re buying EUR and selling USD. So, if the EURUSD is currently trading at 1.1078, this means that every euro is equal to USD 1.1078. If you&#8217;re anticipating an increase in the value of the EUR &#8211; in relation to the USD &#8211; you can execute a Buy order at 1.1078, and buy EUR by selling USD. Let&#8217;s assume the price of the EURUSD increases to 1.1098; it means that every euro is now equal to USD 1.1098 and you&#8217;ve made a profit. However, if, for example, the price of the EURUSD decreases to 1.1067, this would mean that every euro would now be equal to 1.1067 USD; hence, losing money.<\/p>\n<p>The most traded currency pairs are USD, EUR, GBP, CAD, CHF, JPY, AUD, and NZD.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Trading currencies is simply the buying of one currency and selling of another.
