Each market has its fixed and unique characteristics, but all markets share a common character.

Markets are separated by distance and time, and they interact sensitively and independently.

When a center ends its business day after day, it sends orders to other centers, sometimes setting the tone for the opening of the next market.

These foreign exchange markets are centered around their cities and radiate other countries and regions.

Because of the different time zones, the foreign exchange markets are closed on business hours and are listed on the same line. They are integrated into one another through advanced communication equipment and computer networks. The participants in the market can trade around the world, and foreign exchange capital flows smoothly.
