Trading Terms: Forex Trading Terminology

If you’ve ever heard experienced traders talk, it might sound like coded language. Phrases like “going short on cable” or “watching Guppy” can confuse beginners. In this lesson, we explain essential trading terms and forex trading terminology to help you understand the language of the market.

Trader 1: “I’m going short on cable, but I’m also watching Guppy.”
Trader 2: “I’m currently flat but looking to go long on channel.”
