Apart from this, the next major difference between both markets is that stock market takes place only within a country and primarily concerned with currency of a country, for example stock market of United States and United Kingdom deals in US Dollar and British Pound respectively. This is not in the case of the fx market. In the fx market, investors deal between two internationally accepted currency pairs of different countries, for example- dollar and pound, euro and dollar and many other currency pairs.
Today foreign exchange market is the world’s largest financial market where around two trillion dollars is traded per day. This fact simply indicates that fx market is many times higher than daily stock market trading of any country. In fact, it won’t be wrong to say that the forex market is around 3 times bigger than the stock market. It is a vast trading platform where things which bought and sold can also be easily liquidated, which means it can be turn back into cash fast. Forex market usually involves from retail investors to big financial institutions and governments agencies. However, though forex market has some advantages, but stock market looks more stable and not as volatile as the fx market. So, if you are really looking forward to earn some profit from forex market, necessary training and education is required or else the chances of losing money gets more.
