Hey John! I haven’t seen you in ages! What’s new? What have you been up to?

嘿，约翰！好久不见！最近怎么样？都在忙什么呢？

Pete! Nice to see you. Well, on top the norm, you know, wife and kids and work, I’ve actually gotten into doing some trading.

皮特！真高兴见到你。嗯，除了平常那些事，你知道的，老婆孩子和工作，我其实还开始做点交易了。

Trading? You, big guy? What are you trading?

交易？你？大块头？交易什么啊？

Currencies.

外汇。

Currencies? As in Euros, Dollars, Pounds and Rupees?

外汇？你是说欧元、美元、英镑、卢比那些？

It’s called Forex. Foreign Exchange. The great thing about it is that I don’t have to invest a huge amount. I put in a margin deposit and then I can buy and sell up to 100 times that much!

那叫Forex，外汇交易。好处是我不用投入一大笔钱。我交个保证金，就能买卖最高100倍金额的外汇！

I don’t understand. You’re buying and selling money?

我不明白。你在买卖钱？

You got it! Just last night I made USD 150!

没错！就昨晚，我赚了150美元！

Last night?

昨晚？

Yeah! It’s a 24 hour market! I had bought some RMB earlier at a low asking price but last night it appreciated drastically so I made a split second decision and sold all my RMB at an amazing bid! I’ve also done some trading with CHF and AUD and HKD. I’ve made some good profits but I’ve also suffered some losses. It depends on a lot of factors just like any other market. In total I’ve made about USD 500 in the past few months.

是啊！这是个24小时的市场！我之前以低价买入了一些人民币，但昨晚它大幅升值，我瞬间决定以超高的卖价全部抛售！我还交易过瑞士法郎、澳元和港币。赚了一些，也亏过一些。就像其他市场一样，取决于很多因素。总的来说，这几个月我赚了大概500美元。

You’re kidding! I’m on! Where do I sign up?

你开玩笑吧！我加入！在哪儿注册？
