If you are an active trader in the Foreign Exchange Market or the Forex, then you know the value of being regularly informed or updated of the current Forex exchange rate . Forex exchange rate is highly volatile. Theexchange rate of a trading currency at one given time will not be the same the next day.

How do Forex traders profit from a Forex exchange rate ? A trader buys a currency at a certain amount or exchange rate . The difference between the previous rate and the new rate when the currency was sold or exchanged is the profit that the trader made.

Foreign currency exchange rate refers to the value of a certain currency based or compared to the rate of another currency. A foreign currency exchange is said to be increasing its value if it is gaining strength against the dollar even in terms of centavos.
