The Psychology of the Foreign Exchange Market

Front Cover
Wiley, Nov 30, 2004 - Business & Economics - 280 pages
This book demystifies the foreign exchange market by focusing on the people who comprise it.  Drawing on the expertise of the very professionals whose decisions help shape the market, Thomas Oberlechner describes the highly interdependent relationship between financial decision makers and news providers, showing that the assumption that the foreign exchange market is purely economic and rational has to be replaced by a more complex market psychology.
