Agreed. Traders profit from the price movement – whether thats up or down, like traders of the worldwide Stock markets. This is why fundamentals are important as like you say Euro instability and general economic recovery within the Eurozone will effect the price movement and therefore trading opportunities. As a Forex trader, it is important to have some knowledge/interest of general economics – looking at the wider influences upon the Forex market.

Experienced forex traders profitted enormously on the SUPER volatile market and the downtrend of the dollar. Millions where made.

Now Europe is under pressure with Greece pulling the EURO stability downward. The dollar is gaining on the EURO now. So Forex Traders are profiting on the uptrend now.
