Forex Trading is becoming more and more popular. So it’s time to learn about Forex.
The Forex market hours are one of its main attractions. As the phrase from the famous Wall Street movie says: ” Money never sleeps “. In Forex it is fully fulfilled since it is an active market 24 hours a day in which there are always movements.

While it is true, there are times of greater movement coinciding with the 3 main stock market sessions (Europe, Asia, and the United States). And, others with less that may be less recommended such as weekends. It is a good opportunity. The flexibility of Forex schedules allows you to perfectly combine both. Your time to learn and your work as a trader, with your current professional activity. An exclusive dedication is not necessary. This is more complicated when investing in stocks. Indices, since the sessions, for most people, tend to coincide with their working hours. The fact that there are no session closings also avoids gaps. Or, gaps in the price in the following opening in case of important news in the hours that the market is closed.
Liquidity
Forex is also the most liquid financial market in which more than 5 trillion dollars are traded daily. It is a rapidly growing market. In which it is very easy to enter and exit at any time.

This does not always happen in markets with less liquidity such as in the case of stocks. At certain times, you may want to sell a share and cannot find a buyer or vice versa. In Forex there are always buyers and sellers to act as counterparts for your operations, especially in the main currency pairs.
Transparency and Security
Handling such a large market as the currency is almost impossible. Any investor, no matter how large, cannot significantly influence the price of a currency. Even the relevant decisions of a central bank (which occur infrequently) can affect a currency from time to time. But, after a time it will tend to stabilize according to the direction taken by most investors.

Time to learn how to get information to make trading decisions
In the case of investing in shares of a company, you must be aware of and follow numerous factors: company balance sheets, presentation of results, personnel changes in the management team, the situation of competing companies, important news in the sector, changes in the strategy of the company, important commercial operations achieved or failed, capital increases, entry or exit of important shareholders. A lot of information is needed to make proper trading decisions. And, the worst thing is, that this information does not reach all investors at the same time on equal terms. On many occasions, there is the exchange of privileged information between managers, main shareholders, who know the situation and important changes that affect the company before the rest.
