An insider’s original take on how global currency markets operate in the real world
In How Currency Markets Work, a veteran currency trader and a geopolitical risk analyst deliver a comprehensive and street-smart guide for understanding currency markets. The authors combine insights from the worlds of trading, economics, and geopolitics to create an eye-opening and original new take on how currency prices are determined.
This book bridges the gap between how currency markets are taught and how they actually trade, using character-driven narratives built on real-world market events and data to explain currency trading successes and failures in intuitive and practical ways.
Inside the book: - Actionable tools and tested strategies for currency trading you can apply immediately to improve your returns and your portfolio’s risk profile
- Clear real-world examples of how geopolitical events, wars, and political shifts impact currency values
- Profiles of the speculators, corporate hedgers, and central banks whose interplay shapes exchange rates
- Advanced strategies for options, volatility trading, and exploiting mathematical relationships in currency markets
A deeply insightful and accessible exploration of a much-discussed topic, How Currency Markets Work is a powerful new resource for academics, researchers, hedge fund managers, bank traders, policymakers, and practicing and aspiring forex traders.
