Forex and Stocks - mirror images of wealth
The differences between forex and the stock market are mostly the result of a larger number of options available to forex traders. Stock traders also use leverage and margin accounts, but only forex traders utilize, or are invited to utilize leverage as high as 400:1. If traders did not make use of high leverage, forex would be even safer than stock trading, since, although firms can become bankrupt, nations don’t, they print money.
