Forex Trading – Foreign Exchange Course

You want to learn about Forex?

Foreign exchange, or forex, is the conversion of one country’s currency into another.
In a free economy, a country’s currency is valued according to the laws of supply and demand.
In other words, a currency’s value can be pegged to another country’s currency, such as the U.S. dollar, or even to a basket of currencies.
A country’s currency value may also be set by the country’s government.
However, most countries float their currencies freely against those of other countries, which keeps them in constant fluctuation.

The book discusses the mechanisms by which securities are traded, as well as examining economic models of asymmetric information, inventory control, and cost-minimizing trading strategies.

Review
“Joel Hasbrouck provides the first integrated introduction to the most important models of empirical market microstructure. The development is logical and easy to follow. Students and practioners will undoubtedly greatly appreciate the care with which Hasbrouck has identified the strengths and weaknesses of the models, and their relations to each other. This book represents an outstanding synthesis of academic work over the last 20 years. It is–and will long be–the authoritative treatment on the subject.”–Larry Harris, Fred V. Keenan Chair in Finance, USC Marshall School of Business and author of Trading and Exchanges (OUP, 2002)
