The Evolution of Trading
The modern capital markets as we know them, were initially established to facilitate fund management for banks in the early 20th century. The space quickly turned into one that could easily be manipulated by those with huge investment capacity. This led to the creation of regulatory bodies worldwide to ensure investor safety and to stabilise the capital markets. In the latter years of the 20th century, technology-enabled innovation introduced electronic trading. This opened the financial markets for retail investors, who had access to information and opportunities on par with institutional investors.
The speed of evolution accelerated in the 21st century, with retail investors becoming a significant part of the forex, commodities, equities and now cryptocurrency markets. Fxview was established in 2009 with the aim of easing entry to trading and providing world-class conditions for anyone who wished to participate in the markets. Forex, the most traded decentralised market, is also the most popular one among retail traders. Fxview allowstraders to make the most of the opportunities offered by this market through comprehensive educational resources and trading via Contracts for Difference (CFDs). Fxview’s superior customer service makes the journey smooth and friction-free for beginners.
Why Trade CFDs
CFDs are derivative instruments that allow traders to use leverage to expand their market exposure. This allows traders to participate in their chosen markets without the need for a large capital base. With CFDs, traders do not own the underlying instruments. They only speculate on the future price of an asset. This allows them to make the most of opportunities in both rising and falling markets.
However, traders must remember that trading with leverage amplifies both profit and loss potential by enhancing market exposure. This is why experienced traders use leverage wisely and implement appropriate risk management measures when placing orders.

Trading Terminology Every Trader Should Know
Familiarising oneself with the market terminology eases the understanding of market reports and analyses. Fxview offers a vast forex glossary to help beginners with financial jargon. Here’s a snapshot of this abundant resource pool:
Leverage: Expressed as ratios, such as 1:100 or 1:500*, this is capital borrowed from the broker to enter a position.
Pips: The smallest price movement in the forex market is known as a pip. This price change is quoted to the fourth decimal point for most currencies, except the Japanese Yen.
Margin: This is the minimum capital a trader needs to maintain in their trading account to open a position or keep an existing position open. It is the difference between the full value of the position and the leverage used.
Stop Loss: One of the most popular risk management techniques, it involves setting a price level at which an open position will be automatically closed to limit losses.
