The Open Financial Market: A Global Concern in 2012

The open financial market has evolved significantly over the last 30 years, with the result that it is barely recognisable from in previous generations. Technology has played a significant role in this, as have the vast social, economic and market changes that have taken place over a consistent period of time.

Far from being the elusive and distant entity that it was at the turn of the eighties, the open financial market is now a far more accessible forum, and one that can deliver profitability to a far greater demographic of society. This has created a genuinely competitive and global market place, where part time traders are afforded the same advantages as professional practitioners.

A Changing Market: 30 Years of Innovation

At the start of 1980, the financial market was synonymous with the New York stock exchange and high profile corporate trading. It was the domain of experienced brokers and affiliated professional traders, who would effect their transactions as effectively as possible given the lack of prominent and real time technology. It was certainly no place for novice and independent traders, however, as investors who were not representing a leading financial institution would not have access to the information, knowledge base and analytical tools to earn financial returns.

Fast forward to 2012, and the scenario could not offer a more pronounced or vivid contrast. To begin with, the connections between each individual stock exchanges has been developed considerably, and the implementation of direct access trading systems (DAT’s) has created a market that is genuinely unified and global in nature. This has had the effect of creating a far greater liquidity and range of trading options, and established a market where investors can maximise their earning potential significantly.

The People’s Market: Levelling the Trading Playing Field

Perhaps the single greatest innovation in the open financial market has been the development of online trading platforms, which are often offered by established brokers that have sought to diversify their revenue streams. These software packages are widely accessible, and offer comprehensive guidance, charts and informational tools for start up traders who are keen to become profitable within the financial market. The increasing sophistication of this software has levelled the playing field upon which part time and professional traders operate, and completed a dramatic change in the nature of market investment.

Even more impressive is the range of diversity of trading platforms available, and the fact that specific user interface’s can be customised to enhance each traders experience and profitability. Not only can software options be purchased as either web based or downloadable solutions, but they are also available to suit specific types of trading vehicles. This has created an environment and market which is extremely welcoming to newcomers, and encouraged a number of individuals to embrace trading despite their inexperience.

The Future for The Financial Markets

This trend is set to continue across the globe, with international brokers such as Alpari offering an increasingly evolved series of tutorials and software packages to aspiring traders. If anything, the intensifying competition between online brokerage firms is likely make financial market trading even more affordable and accessible, and something that continues to have an even greater impact in the mainstream of society.
