    Forex trading involves the buying and selling of currencies in the foreign exchange market. The market operates 24 hours a day, five days a week, and is the largest financial market globally, with an average daily turnover of over $5 trillion. 
    In this book, we aim to introduce you to the key concepts and principles of Forex trading. We will explore the mechanics of the market, the benefits and risks involved, the currencies involved, and the different trading strategies you can implement in your trading. 
    Our goal is to provide you with enough knowledge and understanding to start trading Forex confidently. Whether you`re an aspiring investor or a seasoned trader, this book will serve as a valuable resource to help you make informed decisions and achieve your trading goals.
