[John Starks]

The forex market is a high-volume market that is not stationary and have many players/participants both big and small.

The cause for this thread is to know who and what is responsible for the movements in forex.

The foreign exchange (forex) market is dominated by financial/speculative transactions rather than commercial transactions. Of financial transactions, it’s dominated by trades in currencies themselves rather than portfolio flows.

Fundamental events are mainly responsible for big movements of Forex market. This is way, I like to do news trading mainly. I mainly use my support/resistant knowledge for doing news trading. On the other side, I use economic calendar of TradingBanks to get instant news’s! Thus, I do my news trading and make handsome money without any panic.

The fundamental factors as well as the technical factors that move the forex market aggregate as demand and supply forces that determine the prices of various currencies in the forex market.
