자주묻는질문

Forex, or the ‘Foreign Exchange Market’, is the largest financial market in the world, with a daily average turnover of approximately US$3 trillion.

Forex trading is the simultaneous buying of one currency and selling of another. The price of currencies is floating and dependent on supply and demand. Foreign exchange is always traded in pairs, for example EUR/USD or AUD/USD.

Forex is said to be one of the fairest and most transparent markets on earth. This is mainly because of the large number of market participants and sheer size and number of transactions. No one single country or bank can completely control the direction of a currency.

Forex is not exchange traded, unlike the stock and futures markets. Forex is traded on an over-the-counter (OTC) basis with no central exchange between banks, governments, hedge funds and private investors. The Forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week, it opens in New Zealand and closes in New York.

The main participants in the Forex market are central banks, commercial banks and investment banks, however, in recent years – since the advent of the internet – accessibility to the Forex market has increased, which has resulted in an increase in the number of non-bank participants. Nowadays, participants also include large multinational corporations, money managers, registered dealers, money brokers and private investors.

The Forex market is a 24-hour market. Forex trading commences in Wellington, New Zealand and moves around the globe as business days begin in each financial centre. The major global financial centres where most Forex trading takes place are Tokyo, London and New York.

The most popular liquid currency pairs are those from countries with politically stable governments and well-respected central banks. The most popular currency pairs are those that are paired with the US dollar, these are nicknamed the ‘majors’ and account for around 85% of transactions. The most commonly traded pairs are the EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD, AUD/USD, USD/CHF and USD/CAD.

A variety of fundamental and technical aspects can cause an exchange rate to move. The most notable influences include interest rates, inflation and political stability. Sometimes, governments will buy or sell a currency in an effort to influence its value with a view to having a broader effect on the country’s economy. This is known as ‘central bank intervention’ and can have a significant impact on the value of a currency. Given the size and diversity of participants, no one single factor can influence the Forex market for any significant length of time.

Making money trading Forex involves buying lower and selling higher or selling higher and buying back lower. Using leverage means that you are able to deposit a smaller amount of money to achieve the same buying power as you would have if you bought and sold the currencies outright.

In this example, Mary deposits $5,000 into her Forex trading account and nominates the leverage on her account to be 1:100. As a result of leverage, Mary’s buying power on her $5,000 deposit becomes $500,000. Mary decides to buy 0.1 lots of the AUD/USD par at a price of 0.99802. Three days later, the price of the AUD/USD is 1.04069 and Mary decides to close her position. Mary’s profit is calculated as (1.04069 – 0.99802) 426 pips. As Mary opened a position of 0.1 lots, she made a profit of $426, or $1 per pip.

Of course, should the AUD/USD have moved against Mary below the opening price of her trade to a level of 0.97802, Mary would have incurred a loss on the trade of (0.99802 – 0.95542) 426 pips. As Mary’s position size was 0.1 lots, she would have incurred a loss of $426 or $1 per pip.
It is important to be aware that when trading Forex you can also incur losses which can be greater than your initial deposit.

Both our MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5 platforms are set to automatically close your positions when your margin requirement reaches 50% (stop out level). This process is automated and is not a guarantee that your account will not enter into a negative equity situation. We recommend that you always maintain a balance in your account over and above your required margin. If the stop level is reached, a market order is triggered to close your open positions at the next available price in the market.

Events such as markets gapping over the weekend or on major holidays, where liquidity is thin, can increase the chance of your positions being stopped out and a negative equity situation occurring. We advise that you use stop loss orders to limit your risk and monitor the margin level in your account regularly. You will be responsible for any negative balance in your trading account.

Forex traders can use a variety of risk management strategies. The most common form of risk management is the use of stop loss and limit orders. Stop loss orders can be set within the MetaTrader 4 platform and are often used to force the closure of a position at a predetermined price in order to limit any potential loss. Limit orders work in much the same way as stop loss orders. However, they allow a restriction to be placed on the maximum price paid.

Forex traders use a variety of trading strategies based on technical and fundamental analysis. Nowadays, technical trading is becoming increasingly popular and traders are using a variety of technical indicators, such as trend lines, support and resistance levels, and numerous other methods, to identify short-to-medium term trading opportunities. Some traders choose to use fundamental analysis, which revolves around interpreting economic information including news, government reports and sometimes even rumour. Often, however, it is elements outside of technical and fundamental analysis that have the most dramatic effect on currency prices. This includes events such as central bank intervention, interest rate changes, political change or even war.

As you are trading leveraged CFD products, you will be able to open positions that are larger than your account balance. This means that a smaller move in your favour will result in a larger profit and a smaller move against you will result in a large loss. If the price of the CFD you are trading gaps or moves against you quickly, it is possible that you could lose more than your account balance.

Although we will attempt to close your position when the margin level falls to 50% of the required margin (stop out level), we cannot guarantee that your account will not enter into a negative balance. You will be in margin call when the margin level drops to 100% of the required margin; at this point, you will see the position change colour in your trading platform. This is an indication to take appropriate measures by either reducing the exposure or adding additional funds to the trading account. If the margin level drops a further 50%, the platform will automatically start closing out positions.

You can simply right-click your mouse in the Market Watch area and select ‘show all’.

too many indicators being installed and used on charts,
too many charts opened at the same time,
any extra software, such as EA,
small RAM on your PC or a large influx of data received at your platform
We suggest you install a separate platform and run it without any EA and indicators to see if it fixes the problem. You may also contact our support team, who will be able to troubleshoot the problem for you.

Hosting your platform on a VPS instead of your local hard drive would also minimize such occurrences.

In currency trading, ‘gapping’ typically occurs when the currency reopens for trading after a weekend/rollover. Gaps are usually caused by low liquidity in the market. It is possible to retrieve the missing data by refreshing the chart if the gap has occurred because the chart has not updated correctly.

The ‘market is closed’ error message means you are trying to trade outside of the product’s trading session. To check the trade hours of a product, please right-click on the product in the Market Watch window and select ‘Specifications’, which will open a new window with the trading hours of the selected product.

Different instruments have different trading hours attached to them. For detailed information on the trading hours for different products, you may refer to our Trading Hours page.

We do not currently offer 24/7 cryptocurrencies trading. Please refer to the Trading Hours page for information on the trading hours.

In forex, ‘spread’ is the difference between the bid and the ask price.

Different trading products have different restrictions on the number of trading lots. Eg. the minimum single lot size for forex, gold, silver and crude oil is 0.01 lots. Please refer to the specification in MetaTrader 4/5 for more details.

‘Margin’ is the amount of money required in your account in order to open a position. Margin is calculated based on the current price of the base currency against USD, the size (volume) of the position and the leverage applied to your trading account. If you do not have sufficient free equity available, you will be unable to open a position on the trading platform. The free margin amount shown in the trading platform is the amount you have available to use should you wish to open additional positions.

If you have no free margin, your positions will be stopped out. Under certain circumstances, your account balance can also become negative should the losses on the positions stopped out exceed your account balance.

Pacific Union’ margin call level is 120%. This means that you will receive a margin call when your equity is 120% of the margin required on your open positions. Equity is calculated as (Balance + Open Profit/Loss).

Pacific Union’ margin stop out level is 50%. This means that if your free margin falls below 50%, then your positions will be automatically closed. MetaTrader 4 will automatically close them in order of the largest losing position to the smallest.
The margin stop out level is calculated using the following formula.
Margin level = equity / used margin x 100%
= margin level %

Worked example
The margin on a $10,000 USD (equity) trading account with 1 standard lot open position on USD/JPY and 100 times leverage would be calculated as follows:
= 10,000 / 1,000 x 100%
= 1000% margin level
If the position moves against you and your equity fell to $5,000, the calculation would be:

= 5,000 / 1,000 x 100%
= 500% margin level

If the position moved against you even further and the equity fell to $499, the position would be stopped out as the margin level would have fallen below 100%.
= 499 / 1,000 x 100%
= 49.9% margin level

A ‘long’ position is much the same as entering into a BUY transaction, conversely a ‘short’ position is much the same as entering into a SELL transaction.

By way of example if you BUY 1 standard lot or 100,000 units of EUR against USD you are entering into a ‘long’ position. If on the other hand you sell 1 standard lot of 100,000 units of AUD against USD you are entering into a ‘short’ position.

There are no limits to the number of trades that you must place each month.

There is a limit of 1000 orders, open or pending, on your account at any one time. Once you reach 1000 orders, you will not be able to place any more trades.

You can keep your positions open for an indefinite period of time as long as there is no expiry attached to the product contract.

Slippage is an inherent part of financial markets. Whether you are trading forex, indicies, metals, commodities, shares or cryptocurrencies, you will be subject to slippage. When you place a market order, you are requesting your order is filled at the current market prices; however, if the market has moved between the time you place your order and the time it has been filled, your order may be filled at a different price. Slippage can increase when markets become volatile, such as over new releases. You should keep this in mind when trading outside of normal market conditions.

Stop loss orders, when triggered, enter the market as market orders; therefore, there is no guarantee that your order will be filled at the price you placed your stop loss.

Market orders are submitted at the current market price; however, these may not necessarily execute at the price requested. The trader executes these orders with a volume and price offered by the CFD provider and they will be filled at the best available bid/ask for the size (volume) the trader is trading. Market orders generally allow for the faster execution of orders without any requotes.

The trader may execute using a pending order if they expect the market to go up or down but do not wish to enter until a certain price level is reached; the order will not be filled if price does not reach this level.

A pending order is broken up into six types:
Buy Limit
Sell Limit
Buy Stop
Sell Stop
Buy Stop Limit
Sell Stop Limit

It is an instruction from an investor to buy a certain amount of an asset. A buy order opens at the asking price and closes at the bid price.

It is an instruction from an investor to sell a certain amount of an asset. A sell order opens at the bid price and closes at the ask price.

When a trader wishes to buy (or go long) below the current market price, a buy limit order is placed, which gets executed when the market dips and touches the requested price, that is, if the ask price on the platform drops to a level equal to or lower than the specified buy limit price.

When a trader wishes to sell (or go short) above the current market price, a sell limit order is placed, which is executed if the bid price on the platform rises to a level that is equal to or higher than the specified sell limit price.

When a trader wishes to buy (or go long) above the current market price, a buy stop order is placed, which is executed as soon as the ask price is found equal to or higher than the specified ‘stop’ price.

When a trader wishes to sell (or go short) below the current market price, a sell stop order comes in place, which is executed as soon as the bid price is found equal to or lower than the specified ‘stop’ price.

The stop limit order is a type of order that is executed at a specified or a better price after a given stop level is reached. As soon as the stop price is reached, the stop limit order becomes a limit order to buy or sell at the limit price or the next best available price.

A trailing stop is a type of stop loss order attached to a trade that moves as the price fluctuates. It is designed to lock in profits or limit losses as a trade moves favourably by a certain amount of pips, as set by the investor. It is important to note that trailing stops only move if the price moves favourably. Once it moves to lock in a profit or reduce a loss, it does not move back the other way.
