The Chart Types we need a charting technique that displays this information in the most comprehensible way. If not for a good charting technique, charts can get quite complex. Each trading day has four data points’ i.e the OHLC. If we are looking at a 10 day chart, we need to visualize 40 data points (1 day x 4 data points per day). So you can imagine how complex it would be to visualize 6 months or a year’s data.

In reality, behind successful FX speculation lies a decision making process that most likely blends technical analysis and fundamental analysis. Picture this: you are a trader for a hedge fund, ...

I would not be exaggerating if I were to say that nearly 80% of the derivatives traded are options and the rest is attributable to the futures market. Internationally, the option market has been around for a while now, here is a quick background on the same – Custom options were available as Over the Counter (OTC) since the 1920’s. These options were mainly on commodities Options on equities began trading on the Chicago Board Options Exchange (CBOE) in 1972 Options on currencies and bonds began in late 1970s. These were again OTC trades Exchange-traded options on currencies began on Philadelphia Stock Exchange in 1982 Interest rate options began trading on the CME in 1985 Clearly the international markets have evolved a great deal since the OTC days.
