How does forex trading work?
When you trade the foreign exchange market (FX for short) with Pepperstone, you trade via a derivative, for example a Contract for Difference (CFD).
Instead of taking physical ownership (buying or selling) of a foreign exchange currency, when you trade you are speculating on the price movements in an underlying asset, such as EUR/USD. All currency pair trades involve the buying or selling of one currency priced in another. There is a base currency (that is always listed on the left) and a quote currency (on the right).
