Extended data

Foreign exchange margin trading has many advantages over the stock market:

1, the stock market can only trade at a specific time of the day, usually from 9: 30 am to 4: 00 pm. Foreign exchange margin trading can be 24 hours a day, 5 days a week, and you can invest in margin trading in your spare time at night.

There are hundreds of stocks in the stock market, so it will be very difficult to choose stocks. In the foreign exchange market, currency combinations are very limited, which allows you to concentrate on these currency combinations and quickly grasp our pulse.

3. The trading volume of the stock market is much smaller than that of the foreign exchange market, and tens of millions of non-professional investors affect the normal operation of the market, which makes it more difficult to predict the market trend. The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in the world, including many large participants-banks, investment funds, companies and other financial institutions.

Another disadvantage of the stock market is that in the bear market, investors can do nothing but be trapped. When the economy is booming, most investors can make profits, but the economic development is alternating. When development is replaced by recession, investors can only hold their ground. In the foreign exchange market, whether the economy is developing or declining, investors can make profits, which is the short-selling mechanism of foreign exchange margin.
