時間枠の重要性

In this lesson, we will discuss candlestick charts, although the same principles also apply to bar charts. A candlestick can represent a range of time periods such as 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, 4 hours, 1 day, 1 week or 1 month. These timeframes are available in our trading platform, MT4. In every case, the timeframe has to be defined, alongside the trading instrument in order for the viewer to understand what he or she is looking at. There are two primary reasons for using different timeframes when performing technical analysis. Firstly, it has to do with the fact that different timeframes offer different perspectives […]

Today we will discuss the various types of charts and how to identify. Each chart type comprises two axes, with the vertical axis indicating the value of the trading instrument and the horizontal axis representing time. On our trading platform, there are three chart types. 1. Line chart: this consists of a simple line connecting the trading instrument’s value at specific time points. It’s the simplest of the three chart types, but provides the least amount of information. 2. Bar chart: In this chart, bars illustrate the trading instrument’s value over a defined time period. Each bar represents the range of values for the instrument during that period. Each bar […]

テクニカル分析入門

What is technical analysis? Technical analysis is the study of historical price action to forecast future price trends through the use of charts. Market action includes: price, volume and open interest. Technical analysis can be used for short-term, medium-term and long-term trading. Technical analysts use various theories, charting tools, and indicators to develop trading rules and trading systems. Once technical analysis is mastered, it can be applied to all trading instruments and timeframes, whether for short, medium, or long- term trading. The three main principles of technical analysis are: The market discounts everything: The price of a currency pair automatically considers “fundamentals” like macroeconomic conditions. Price moves in trends: Technical […]

通貨の売買

In forex trading, all transactions involve two different currencies, and traders speculate on the price movement of one currency pair against another. Although trading is possible in almost all currencies in the forex market, the majors are most commonly traded. Traders can profit by speculating whether a currency’s value will appreciate or depreciate in relation to another currency. The price of the most widely traded currency pair, the EUR/USD, represents how much of the U.S. dollar (quote currency) is required to buy one unit of the euro (base currency). On trading platforms, prices indicate the value of one euro in US dollars. The two prices indicate the Buy price and […]

通貨ペアとは

A currency pair is a quotation of two different currencies, where one is quoted against another. Currencies are listed in pairs such as EUR/USD or USD/JPY, where the first currency is known as the base currency and the second as the quote currency. One of the most commonly traded currency pairs is the EUR/USD pair, which is also the most liquid in the world due to its high volume of trading. Every currency pair has two prices: a bid price (the highest price a buyer is willing to pay), and an ask price  (the lowest price a seller is willing to accept). The difference between the two prices is referred […]

フォレックス市場

What sets the forex market apart is its decentralised structure. Unlike traditional exchanges, forex trading takes place over-the-counter (OTC) through online transactions between global traders instead of via a centralised exchange. With an average daily trading volume of $6.6 trillion (2019), the forex market is one of the world’s largest and most liquid financial market. The forex market operates 24 hours a day, 5 days a week. When the market is open, large volumes of any currencies can be purchased. The key financial hubs include London, New York, Tokyo, Zurich, Frankfurt, Hong Kong, Singapore, Paris and Sydney. The forex market can be highly active at any time, with prices fluctuating […]

フォレックス取引の仕組み

The forex (foreign exchange or FX) market is a global marketplace where individuals, corporations, and central banks exchange national currencies at an agreed price. When you travel abroad, it’s common to make forex transactions. While a lot of foreign exchange is done for practical reasons, the main purpose of most currency conversion is profit generation. The vast volume of currency conversion that occurs daily can make currency price movements extremely volatile. It is this volatility that makes forex so appealing to traders as there is the potential to make substantial profits though there is also increased risk.

In this lesson, we’ll have a look at other key definitions. 1. BALANCE: This represents the amount of money you have in your trading account. Unrealised profit or losses are ignored. For example, if you have USD 5000 in your account and USD 200 unrealised losses from open trades, your balance remains USD 5000. 2. EQUITY: Equity is the amount of money that you will have in your account if you were to simultaneously close all your open positions. Equity = Balance +P/L. Using the previous example, if your balance is USD 5000 and your unrealised losses are USD 200, your equity would be USD 4800. 3. FREE MARGIN: Free […]

ビッド、アスク、スプレッド、スワップ

Today we will discuss the significance of the bid price, the ask price, the spread and swap. When you start using a trading platform, you will notice that exchange rates are quoted in two prices. The first price in a currency pair is the bid price. It is the price at which the broker is willing to buy from you. Put simply, it is the price at which you can sell. The second price is the ask or offer price. It is the price at which your broker is willing to sell the currency pair to you. This is the price at which you can buy. The difference between the […]

指値注文

Today, we will analyse the subcategories of pending orders. There are four types of pending orders to enter the market. Buy Stop: This is a pending order to buy at a price that is higher than the current market price. For example, if EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.1110, a buy stop would be a pending order to start buying EUR/USD once it reaches 1.1120. Sell Stop: This is a pending order to sell at a price below the current market price. For example, if EUR/USD is currently trading at 1.1110, a sell stop would be a pending order to start selling once EUR/USD reaches 1.1100. Buy Limit: This is […]
