Short-Selling without an Uptick

Unlike the equity market, there is no restriction on short selling in the currency market. Trading opportunities exist in the currency market regardless of whether a trader is long or short, or which way the market is moving. Since currency trading always involves buying one currency and selling another, there is no structural bias to the market. Hence, a trader has an equal access to trade in a rising or falling market.

Equity Market: Making the Transition to Forex

Equity markets can be used as a key indicator for movement in the Forex market. As technology has enabled greater ease with respect to transportation of capital, investing in global equity markets has become far more feasible. Accordingly, a rallying equity market in any part of the world serves as an ideal opportunity for all, regardless of geographic location. The result of this has become a strong correlation between a country's equity markets and its currency: if the equity market is rising, investment dollars are coming in to seize the opportunity. Alternatively, falling equity markets will have domestic investors selling their shares of local publicly traded firms only to seize investment opportunities abroad.
