Hey, i wanted to ask how do market prices change if forex trading is a Zero-Sum game. I mean if at the same time the same amount of people is buying and selling the same currency pair, why does this pair’s price goes up or down?

Market prices change due to supply and demand dynamics. When demand exceeds supply, prices rise; when supply exceeds demand, prices fall. Factors influencing these dynamics include economic data, market news, geopolitical events, investor sentiment, and changes in interest rates. Prices also react to traders' expectations and speculative actions, leading to continuous fluctuations in financial markets.

The prices we see on our charts represent bids and offers. For a price to change, there must be a corresponding change in these bids and offers.

In a zero-sum game like forex trading, market prices change due to the balance of supply and demand. Even if the number of buyers and sellers is equal, fluctuations in demand or sentiment can drive prices up or down. Factors like economic news, geopolitical events, and trader emotions influence this balance and cause price movements.

Market prices change due to a combination of supply and demand factors. When demand for a currency increases or supply decreases, the price typically rises, and vice versa. Economic indicators, geopolitical events, market sentiment, and central bank policies are key drivers that influence these fluctuations.
