The foreign exchange market is huge, fascinating and yet

widely misunderstood by participants and non-participants

alike. This is because its unanswered questions are numerous.

For instance, what is the purpose of the $4 trillion per day

trading volume? What determines currency trends and who

are the players in the FX arena? Does FX drive other financial

markets, or is it the passive end-product of all the other

markets? FX is without clear supply and demand factors, so

how do traders determine sentiment and price

direction?Much is written in an effort to answer these


questions, but a lot of it is just noise. In the 12 pieces here,

Barbara Rockefeller and Vicki Schmelzer draw on their

combined 50 years' experience in foreign exchange to cut

through the clutter and provide an elegant and razor-sharp

look at this market. Their analysis is accurate, useful and

enlivened by many anecdotes and examples from historic

market events. They cover:- How the matrix concept can help

observers understand foreign exchange market action- What

professional FX traders take into consideration before

entering into positions- Whether the FX market can be

forecast- The interplay between foreign exchange and other

financial markets- How technology has levelled the playing field

between big and small players, and at what cost- Whether

the prospect of reserve currency diversification away from

the dollar is likely- The toolkit that central banks use to

manage national economies and the effect of this on

currencies'The Foreign Exchange Matrix' is the go-to book for

anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the world of

foreign exchange.
