For many, working a full-time job is a non-negotiable part of life. Sustaining an existence, no matter how meager or lavish, often requires the dedication of most of our waking hours. Expenses such as rent, a mortgage, utilities, food and transportation are obligations that must be satisfied. While there are exceptions, meeting these challenges typically requires securing full-time employment, Monday through Friday.

Regardless of one's chosen profession, working hours typically represent a major portion of our lives. For those who secure employment in the financial markets, the scenario is certainly no different. However, the extent of time spent at work does vary depending upon location, culture and industry.

Therein lies one of the biggest advantages to trading currencies on the forex: flexibility. No matter where one lives, or what one does for a living, it is possible to trade the forex. The only prerequisites to trade on a full or part-time basis is desire, an internet connection, computing power and a broker. If you have these assets, then you can become a forex trader.
