In the very first place, you must make use of all the tools and resources at your disposal. As far as Forex trading is concerned, data feed is immensely significant since currency value keeps changing every now and then. In order to maximize profit in this business, you should have access to hi-speed internet. In fact hi-speed internet is a pre-requisite of carrying out Forex trading since you have the power to choose any location to start off your business, be it your holiday destination or the comfort of your bedroom. You can trade without interruption for 24 hours. However, before you start trading, as a green horn Forex trader, it would be to your benefit to browse and review different charts that help you take your decision. The more the number of monitors you work with, the greater would be the number of charts that you can access at a time and eventually implement your decisions with greater confidence.

You must be eager to learn the business. As it happens with any career that we choose, a thorough training in Forex trading too is required. Instead of having proper training, it would virtually be impossible to figure things out while you trade. Here the errors you make is directly proportional to financial loss that you incur. Hence as a budding Forex trader, it would be wise to take a proper training and also keep updating yourself while you are into the trade.

You must keep practicing all that you have acquired from your training. You are sure to invest significant amounts of time in learning the trade and emerge as a successful trader. Once you are through with this, you should apply your knowledge in a mock session. You could avail free demo accounts from most of the Forex brokerage firms enabling you to practice your trade. While you aspire to be a successful Forex trader, your demo account will be furnished with demo dollars so that you can practice trading. You would also be provided with the exact currency rates so that the profit or loss you generate during these mock sessions are exactly the same as what you would have incurred in the real market. You can test your strategies through these demo accounts.

Once you are done with simulations, the next step involves opening a live trading account and beginning to trade in real time. Once you gained practice through the simulations, you would confidently be able to make your decisions. This is possible when you convert your demo account into a live account. You can even start trading with a very small amount if your brokerage firm so permits.

In order to be a successful Forex trader, you must track your strategies and also keep a journal. This way you would understand how things work and how you can bring factors to your favor. If you update your strategies and follow the journal, you would definitely have the opportunity to achieve your full potential as a trader.

In Australia, for example, the process of filing for bankruptcy is largely similar to that in the United States. You can commence proceedings yourself, or it can be the subject of a petition from a creditor looking to realize some of their asset – your bad debt – before you become a “won’t pay” customer. However, a bankruptcy term in Australia is three years, but with the potential to pay it out. If, before the three-year period is up, you can pay the debts off in full the bankruptcy will be annulled. This encourages individuals to see bankruptcy as an opportunity to learn sound financial practice. It is also possible to raise an Offer of Composition, which pays each creditor a certain percentage of what they are owed. If they accept the settlement, the bankruptcy can again be annulled.

In Canada, it is possible to file a consumer proposal as an alternative to bankruptcy if your debt amounts to more than $5,000 and less than $75,000. The higher figure does not include the mortgage on the debtor’s home. For debts larger than $75,000, it is necessary to file for bankruptcy under which there are additional rules and requirements, which include the appointment of a “Proposal Administrator” who is given the task of overseeing the debt to ensure that it is fully analyzed. In many cases, creditors will choose to accept the consumer proposal even though it generally entails paying a reduced amount, because they will receive less under bankruptcy rules.

In the United Kingdom the Enterprise Act of 2002 made it possible for a bankruptcy to last less than 12 months. This has led to a larger number of people filing for bankruptcy and a suspicion that many of those filing are people for whom bankruptcy is simply another financial service. However, the banks themselves are markedly reluctant to lend money to a recently bankrupt individual, and in most cases it will take six years for bankruptcy to roll off an individual’s credit record, making it virtually impossible to get credit on anything resembling reasonable terms. While some lenders have begun to offer loans and credit cards at prohibitive rates of interest, individuals are strongly discouraged from taking them.

Money, Currencies, Exchange Rates

Money is denoted in currencies which are controlled by their governments. In the US it is the dollar; in the eurozone of 17 governments it is the euro; in China it is the rimini; in the UK it is the pound. The euro is an anomaly since it is not controlled by a single government (more about that later).

Within a country (or zone in the case of the euro) there is a knowable amount of money in circulation. The amount depends on the definition of money that is used. ‘M0′ is the narrowest of the several definitions: it is the total amount of the particular currency in notes and coins that is owned by all persons and entities, whether in their wallets or in their safes, including, in the UK, the safes of banks. Other definitions include forms of money such as deposits in bank current accounts, deposits in savings accounts with banks or other institutions, and term deposits, only repayable on a specified date.

Money in a particular currency is a commodity (like copper, wheat, oil, gold) which can be bought or sold with another currency at a rate determined by the market. As with any commodity, the price is higher if you are buying than if you are selling. Thus a bank might quote an exchange rate of 1.6 US$/GBPound for buying dollars with pounds and 1.5 US$/GBPound for selling dollars in return for pounds.

The existence of money and money markets makes trading in goods and services easy and leads to increase in wealth for individuals and nations. Without money there would be a brake on transactions. For example, a bricklayer who wanted to buy a pair of shoes would have to find a shoe maker who wanted some bricks layed (the process called barter). If they cannot find one another they are both the poorer. Because money exists, the bricklayer can earn money laying bricks for anyone and buy goods and services from anybody who has got what he wants.

Lending, Borrowing, Commercial Banks

Once money is accepted as payment for goods and services, individuals start to accumulate bank notes and coins. They need a bank to keep it safe until they are ready to make use of it. Some owners of money have more money than they need while others have less. So it becomes useful for pairs of individuals to agree that one should lend money to the other. Just as money lubricates the exchange of goods and services between buyers and sellers, so banks lubricate the use of money, bringing together lenders and borrowers. The lender usually requires the borrower to pay back a greater sum than they have borrowed, the extra being the ‘interest’.

Commercial banks offer safe keeping to holders of money. The Bank opens a ‘current account’ for the owner of the money and agrees to repay it on demand. It also offers the account holder facilities for making and receiving payments to and from third parties by such means as cheques, standing orders, direct debits and internet transactions. As the Bank gathers more depositors and the total sum of the deposits increases, the Bank finds itself in possession of large quantities of money sitting in its vaults doing nothing. This money does not belong to the Bank and, in principle, it is repayable to the depositors instantly on demand. In practice, the daily demand for repayment is a small fraction of the total. The Bank is providing a service to depositors for which it is not being paid unless it finds ways of making a profit from this service. There are several such ways:

- charge depositors for running their current accounts

- offer depositors temporary loans (overdrafts) on which the bank charges interest

- lend some of the idle money of its depositors to third parties and charge interest

But there is another important way for banks to make a profit by lubricating the use of money:

- first borrow money from other parties for an agreed period for which the Bank will pay the lender interest; for example, through deposit and term deposit accounts

- then use the money that they have borrowed by offering loans to others at a higher rate of interest than that which they are paying to the parties from whom they have borrowed.

There have been times when banks have been careless and greedy in using the money of their depositors. Rumour spreads that a bank may have difficulty in repaying deposits on demand. There is a ‘run’ on the bank, the rumour becomes reality and the bank has to close its doors. After some recent incidents, banks are becoming more tightly regulated and required to keep greater Reserves to cover the excess of their lending over what they owe. But it is debated how big the Reserves must be.

Bonds

When governments, banks and companies need extra money for the conduct of their business they get it by selling bonds. The bond unit has a name, like ‘Treasury $100 5% 2018′. The seller of the bond will pay interest of 5% on the face value of $100 and will buy back the bond at its face value on a specified maturity date in 2018. Such bonds are negotiable: units of the bond may be bought and sold in the money market until its maturity date. The interest rate at the time of issue depends upon the credit-worthiness of the borrower. The re-sale value of the bond on the bond-market varies with market conditions. If interest rates go up to 5.5% the price of this particular bond might fall to $88. If interest rates go down to 4.5%, the price might rise to $115. But near its maturity date in 2018 the price will converge on its face value of $100.

Credit-rating Agencies are commercial companies who rate the credit-worthiness of organisations, including governments. They are influential in determining the interest rates that have to be paid by governments and companies. Three well-known agencies are Moody’s, Standard and Poor’s and Fitch. Their credibility seems to have survived their failure to foresee the over-lending by Freddie Mac, Fanny Mae, Lehmann Bros, the Royal Bank of Scotland and others before the 2007-8 world financial crisis.

Central Bank, Bank rate, Foreign Exchange Reserves

Each national currency has an associated Central Bank. In the UK the central bank is the Bank of England. Central Banks have the legal right to create money with which to buy bonds from their governments and others at an interest rate or Bank Rate of their choosing. They sometimes try to stimulate the economy by keeping interest rates very low and by buying up bonds in the open market. Some call this ‘quantitative easing’ while others call it ‘printing money’. But the Central Bank only supplies notes (printed money) when asked to do so. Usually the money is created by transfers from the Bank’s own account to the receiver’s current account in return for the seller’s bonds. The Central Bank cannot go bankrupt since it is allowed to issue any required amount of new money to meet all demands.

Central Banks hold reserves of money. Gold was once paramount, but today foreign currencies, especially the US dollar, are more important. Additionally countries possess ‘drawing rights’ on the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Such reserves give a Central Bank a means for controlling the exchange rate for its currency. If for example the rate for its currency is rising, the Bank may sell its own currency and buy foreign currencies on the market, so keeping its exchange rate down and the prices of its exports low.

Government Income, Expenditure, Deficit and Debt

Governments spend money on many things: education, defence, social services, transport, and so on. The amount that they spend is their expenditure for the stated period. The government can pay for a large part of its expenditure with its income, mostly derived from collection of taxes. But usually its income is less than its expenditure. The difference is its deficit:

Public Expenditure – Public Income = Public Deficit, for the stated period.

Something has to be done about the deficit or there will be no money in the Government’s current account. So the government borrows money by selling bonds on the bond market (in excess of bonds that are due to be redeemed).

Public Deficit = Net Value of Government bonds sold, for the stated period.

Government are usually given a high credit rating since they are generally considered unlikely to default on their repayments. The interest they have to offer on the bonds will be lower or higher depending on whether their credit-rating is high or low.

As stated above in the Bonds section, bonds have to be repaid on the maturity date specified at the time of issue. So government are continually issuing and repaying bonds; the net total of bonds in issue constitutes the total of Government (or National) Debt:

Total Net Issue of Bonds = Total Government Debt, at the stated time.

The size of Government Debt is sometimes expressed as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) (a sort of national annual income). For the UK this was 62.8% in November 2011. This sounds high but not when compared with the 300% of annual income that an individual may borrow for a long-term loan (mortgage) on their house. But it is higher than the government would like because interest has to be paid on the bonds that make up the Debt; and that interest has to be included in the government’s expenditure. As with individuals, interest on borrowing can become a significant part of expenditure and ought to be kept as low as possible. There can be no rigid rules but usually Governments should restrict their borrowing to paying for capital projects for which there will be a payback: like borrowing to build roads, railways, schools and flood defences. But the cost of social services, pensions and defence should be met from current taxation averaged over a few years.

To borrow or not to borrow is a difficult choice when the activities that make up the nation’s GDP are not flourishing. If government debt is already high, to borrow more may undermine the government’s credit-worthiness as well as increase the government’s interest payments. But not to borrow may necessitate cutting government expenditure and increasing poverty and unemployment.

Other financial bodies and activities

I have mentioned only those financial bodies and activities that I thought essential to explaining the world’s money problems. But there are many others which may contribute to those problems and I now give them a brief mention. Stock exchanges all over the world fix prices for buying and selling shares in large companies. Specialist markets trade in commodities such as oil, wheat, copper, gold. Investment Banks borrow money from wealthy clients and aim to invest it in profitable ventures and take a commission on the profit. Markets also offer investors various sophisticated ‘financial instruments’. For example, there will be a price for which you can buy the right to buy say 1000 shares in Fizzy Cola at a stated price per share on a stated date; this is known as a ‘call’. You can also buy a ‘put’ giving you the right to sell on a similar basis. ‘Futures’, as they are called, exist also for currencies and bonds. These activities may amplify a developing banking crisis.

The Economic Climate

Like the weather, the economic climate can change from warm and sunny to cold and bleak, and then back again. For the economy,

warm and sunny translates into: GDP rising (growth); low interest rates on public and private debt; low inflation; easy access to credit for businesses and private mortgages; tax rates going down; falling unemployment; stock market share prices rising (‘bull’ market).

cold and bleak translates into: GDP steady or falling (recession); high interest rates on public and private debt; inflation rising; shortage of credit for businesses and private mortgages; tax rates going up; rising unemployment; stock market prices falling (‘bear’ market).

There has always been a tendency for a long period of economic sunshine to give way to a period of bleakness. But in recent years we have witnessed the storm clouds blowing up rapidly, precipitating a world financial crisis, not once but 3 times. What happened?
