Price Action Question

Hello Fellow Traders,

Quick Question, when traders take profit, why does it drive the currency pair up?

Thank you in advance!

It is due to a short-covering rally and only happens after a currency pair sold off (after a rally it would move lower due to profit taking).

Because Forex Trading comprises of two simultaneous part i.e. When you buy one pair you/someone are also selling and vice versa. Many markets are great liquidity such as EURUSD USDCAD USDJPY etc. so there are no shortages of buyers and sellers.
