Forex Trading – Foreign Exchange Course

You want to learn about Forex?

Foreign exchange, or forex, is the conversion of one country’s currency into another.
In a free economy, a country’s currency is valued according to the laws of supply and demand.
In other words, a currency’s value can be pegged to another country’s currency, such as the U.S. dollar, or even to a basket of currencies.
A country’s currency value may also be set by the country’s government.
However, most countries float their currencies freely against those of other countries, which keeps them in constant fluctuation.

For courses in options and futures, financial engineering, and risk management offered at the undergraduate and graduate levels and often found in business, finance, economics, and mathematics departments. With a shared regard for and emphasis on theory and practice, this fifth edition work shows how academics and real-world practice have merged. It offers a unified method for valuing all derivatives. The practitioners regard this well-liked course book as “the bible.” There are seven additional chapters altogether in the fifth version.
