LeapRate has a prediction for a falling volume of forex trading in 2011, due to many reasons, including regulation, less volatility and saturation. Francesc Riverola brings their full report.
Markets in the West may be saturated, but as Francesc mentions, we’re still seeing rapid growth Asia and the Middle East. In addition, I hope that the regulation will also have a positive effect – bringing more mainstream traders and investors to forex, while sending the gamblers elsewhere.
I also believe that volatility will remain high, especially regarding EUR/USD, as the debt crisis isn’t behind us.
