Trading Instruments

The foreign exchange market, also known as forex, is an over-the-counter financial market to trade currencies on. It is worldwide the largest and most liquid financial market that operates through a global network of banks, private individuals and corporations who trade one currency for another. With no physical location and central off-exchange, the forex market can operate nonstop during 24 hours, spanning through all main financial centers.

Forex trading is performed in currency pairs. Below you have an overview of all currency pairs you can trade with at United World Capital.

Commodity trading is an investment strategy, which involves the buying and selling of goods that are classified as commodities (e.g. gold, silver). Commodities are excellent investment vehicles and fluctuate entirely based on the market. The table at the bottom of the page gives you an overview of the commodities you can trade at United World Capital.

United World Capital provides you with a wide range of trading instruments and competitive spreads and swaps. Floating spreads start from zero pips for MINIForex and REALForex trading accounts.
