Since many holidays are specific to a particular nation, and since FOREX is global, what you could see on holidays is low volume/ high volatility; the nation experiencing the holiday could be taking a break, but other nations not taking that holiday would be trading its currency.

An example of this is thanksgiving or the Japanese new year (which occurs after the first week of January). In the former case, American traders might not be trading, but others would be. And so on, in the latter case.

I do not know of any global holiday that would cause everyone around the world not to trade; except Saturday's.

It is nice to give it a rest during holidays. If the market didn't go flat once in a while we would never leave our house and computer! LOL!

Indeed there aren't anny fore holydays, however as mentioned earlier during christmass and new year there isn't allot of vollatility.

Annyway the great thing about fore is that you can shut down your trades whenever you want and take a holyday.
