Can Anyone be a Forex Trader?

The foreign exchange (forex) market is the largest non-centralised financial market in the world, with a daily turnover running into the trillions and billions of entities buying and selling currencies all hours of the day.  Once mostly populated by large banks and corporations, now almost anyone can participate in forex trading.  Whether you want to trade directly as a risky-but-challenging way to gain returns, or whether you want to invest indirectly via a fund, there are plenty of ways to get involved.  Generally, you will need a broker who can offer you the platform to get started.  Make sure they are fully regulated by the FSA!
