Introduction to Forex
Currencies trade in pairs: buying one means selling the other. A quoted rate expresses the value of one unit of the base currency in units of the quote currency. Retail Forex products may be leveraged derivatives rather than physical currency delivery.
Example
EUR/USD at 1.1000 means one euro is quoted at 1.10 US dollars.
