Currencies are an 'over the counter' product, and as such not quoted or traded on any specific exchange. The prices are quoted by a large number of active 'Market Makers' such as banks, specialist currency brokers or other financial entities. There is no standard fixed contract size, nor are there any commission fees or any other additional transaction costs involved. All prices quoted are 'two way', i.e., a bid and offer (the spread). This price quoted is inclusive of all trading costs. The spread may vary depending on market conditions and liquidity. Prices may vary depending of liquidity and are constantly changing. The 'market' is alive around the clock and 'follows the sun' around the globe. It is possible to operate efficiently in the market from 20:00 GMT Sunday through 21:00GMT Friday. Positions can be opened and closed at any time throughout this period. The international date line is located in the western Pacific, and each business day arrives first in the Asia Pacific financial centers first Wellington, New Zealand, then Sydney, Australia, followed by Tokyo, Hong Kong, and Singapore. A few hours later, while markets remain active in those Asian centers, trading begins in Bahrain and elsewhere in the Middle East. Later still, when it is late in the business day in Tokyo, markets in Europe open for business. Notably, the European time zone is the most active, with about 2/3 of all global transactions being cleared through London. Subsequently, when it is early afternoon in Europe, trading in New York and other U.S. centers starts. Finally, completing the circle, when it is mid or late afternoon in the United States, the next day has arrived in the Asia Pacific area, the first markets there have opened, and the process begins again.
The twenty four hour market means that exchange rates and market conditions can change at any time in response to global developments anytime. Any dealing institutions chosen by the Partnership must have 24 hour trading available. This is the only market where investors can react and potentially profit from any economic, social and political event at the time it occurs day or night.
