Major, minor, and exotic currency pairs each have distinct characteristics that affect how they are traded in the forex market. They differ in terms of their liquidity, volatility, and availability at various Forex brokers. In this episode, Chris and Alison discuss how traders must adjust their strategies when trading these pairs, considering factors like political stability, economic conditions, and market sentiment, which can have a more significant impact on exotics than on major or minor pairs.

Active traders often group themselves into two camps: day traders or swing traders. Both seek to profit from short-term price movements as opposed to holding assets for long-term growth. The primary difference in the trading strategies is that day traders make many trades during a day, while swing traders trade an asset over a longer time frame, typically two days to a few weeks. Because we get so many questions from traders about which style is better, we thought we would talk about the pros and cons of day trading vs. swing trading.
