The forex (foreign exchange) market has exploded onto the scene and is the hot new financial market. It’s been around for years, but advances in electronic trading have now made it available to individual traders on a scale unimaginable just a few years ago.

In our opinion, nothing quite compares to the speed and exhilaration of the forex market or the intellectual and psychological challenges of trading in it.

Not many people can say that about their day jobs, and we wouldn’t trade it for the world, no pun intended.
