Forex in France

Welcome to CNIE, the leading resource about forex in France. Here you will find all the information you need about forex trading and the best forex brokers in France.

What is Forex Trading?

The exchange of currencies in international markets for the purpose of earning money is known as forex trading. This activity is done through a specialized broker (forex broker) that offers the opportunity to trade currencies instantly using a trading platform connected to the interbank market in real time.

The forex broker is a specialized company that has all the necessary resources to connect its clients to the forex market. These brokers offer excellent conditions for currency speculation, which cannot be matched by currency exchange offices or banks.

To better understand how forex trading works and how a trader can earn money this way, we are going to give you a basic example of a transaction. Let's consider that Julien buys 100,000 euros with US dollars. The exchange rate is $1.1000 for one euro, meaning that Julien pays 110,000 US dollars to buy the 100,000 euros. The exchange rate of the euro rises against the dollar with 1% to 1.1100 dollars for one euro. Julien decides to sell his euros to obtain his profit. He will receive 111,000 US dollars when selling his euros. Thus, with a rise of only 1%, Julien has earned a thousand US dollars in the forex market.

A 1% rise can happen in a day, meaning that trading in the forex market can generate very high profits or losses in a very short time. Now you're going to think that "I do not have a hundred thousand dollars", and that only the rich can earn so much money this way. It is natural to think like this, since we all know that most investments and opportunities are available only to the rich, but in the case of forex, this is not true.

This is where leverage comes in.

How Leverage Works in Forex

In order to allow any trader to be able to transact large amounts of money, forex brokers offer leverage. This instrument consists of a virtual credit that the broker offers to its client in order to use larger sums of money.

The broker knows very well that the forex market has small daily movements. For this reason, a trader needs to transact a lot of money to generate significant profits. If Mr. Julien from our previous example would have bought only one thousand euros, his profit would have been only 10 dollars. The broker is aware of that, and also knows that if the market had moved against Julien, his loss would have been the same. To increase the potential for the profits (and losses) of its clients, the broker offers leverage (this is why forex trading is done through Contracts For Difference, also known as CFDs, which are derivative financial instruments).

If Julien has ten thousand dollars in his account, he needs a leverage of 1:10 to be able to use one hundred thousand dollars. But in our example, Julien had to spend $110,000 to buy the euros, meaning that the necessary leverage in this case would be 1:11. Fortunately, the best forex brokers offer greater leverage. A good forex broker will offer at least 1:20 of leverage, since there are brokers that offer leverage up to 1:30.

Using leverage offers any investor the possibility to trade with appropriate amounts for the interbank market and to earn a lot of money in the forex market.

But leverage also comes with greater risk. Using a lot of leverage can result in higher losses. In the previous example, if the euro had fallen with 1% instead of growing, our Julien would have lost a thousand dollars in one day, that is, 10% of the money he had in his account. That is why it is not recommended to use too much leverage. If you have ten thousand dollars in your account, it would be better to buy only 50,000 euros and use a leverage of 1:5.5 instead of 1:11. This way you would earn 500 dollars with the movement of 1% in a day, but risking only 500 dollars instead of 1,000.

The best thing is that the trader is the one deciding how much leverage he/she will use. The broker can offer 1:30 in leverage, but a reasonable trader will not use more than 1:10 in most cases.
