I thought the basic principle was to buy a currency at a certain price, and then sell it to make the profit. Or Vice Versa.
I’m quarter of the way through studying the Pips School, and i figured after so much theory, i should maybe get a ‘hands on’ feel with a demo account.
So i’ve opened a demo account with Alpari, using the MetaTrader software.
What i dont get is, you click to buy at a certain price, and then to make ‘profit’ you click again to ‘close’ the bid. Whats happened to the whole ‘buying’ and ‘selling’ ?
