The Forex Market and This Economy

By Michael Fredericks

The biggest question right now is how the Forex market is being affected during these difficult economical times. It seems that even during a looming recession, Forexs performance is holding steady on the currency market and Forex forecasts are correct.

Though it is impossible for traders not to be worried in such a questionable time. It is hard to determine what might happen in this current market situation, and like any other companies, the Forex market may be affected negatively. It is difficult to determine what we should do and when it should be done.

Experience in the Forex market does offer some insight, though, because Forex trading is the pure market mechanism at work. The longer one has been trading, the more you will understand that those who make the initial efforts and take the bigger risks reap the bigger rewards.

Our world is in an economic recession and many traders have been in a tailspin, including me. After the September 2008 market crash, the US dollar took a major hit that nobody couldve predicted. These industries had a level of transparency that left the business world at a loss of what to do. We dont have to be helpless to events happening in other markets just because the Forex market is determined by what goes on with other markets.

Even until banks and Wall Street began to disclose their mistakes and downfalls of their books the US dollar held at a steady rate. We had absolutely no structure to backup any of our investments and foreign investors had to take second looks into current plans and future investments that were in the works. One by one our investors were jumping ship and our market recoiled.

The conventional wisdom at a time like this would be to turn towards Asia. Asian currencies are seen as strong especially in light of the entire region's growth in terms of both production and of demand. The crowd is going to be pursuing Asian investment because it may be seen by some as a safe bet despite the uncertain times.

Will other currencies besides Asias strengthen? Most countries have avoided major crisis as they are swimming in a technical recession. Should we all be buying, buying, buying before the economic recession hits bottom since it is clear it hasnt?

Forex is focused on changing regions during this time of recession. Asian markets are extremely resilient against crisis because the demand will always be there for particular goods. Prices will rise, as will their power in currency, this is where our attention should remain. The ability to be flexible is important to Forex and with a region change we may become currency investors as we can only hope that our economy can make a comeback, with Forex leading the pack. - 23159
