What is Forex Margin Trading?

Margin trading simply means trading with borrowed capital. Anyone can open $10,000 or $100,000 positions with as little as $50 or $1,000! A ordinary Forex trader can conduct large transactions very quickly and cheaply, with only a small amount of setup capital.

Margin trading in the Forex market is quantified in “lots”. In Forex, "lots" are normally measured in $10,000 or $100,000 depending on the type of account.
