Description of Electronic Currency Trading for Maximum Profit

Once dominated by institutional traders and banks, the $1.5 trillion, 24-hour global currency markets are now open to a growing number of online traders. Larger than all the world's stock markets combined, currency markets offer unbelievable opportunities to profit from the daily fluctuations of exchange rates.

Their detailed lessons cover everything from mastering technical analysis to developing successful swaps and options strategies. You will discover how to:

Understand the risks and rewards of currency trading
Trade spot forex, futures, and options online
Analyze fundamental and technical data
Choose the best online currency broker
And much more

Complete with easy-to-understand charts and a full glossary, this book is your currency trading bible.
