Does the forex market have any holidays?
Kevin S asked:
Or is it 24 hours, 5 days per week, 52 weeks per year?
I have two people saying that there are no holidays and one that says there are a few. Anyone seeing this mind rating their answers or giving me a link? Thanks!
Thank you all for your answers. Say it is the 4th of July. Would I expect the New York exchange to be closed, while the market remained remained open 24 hours from another exchange? Or would New York remain open as it is electronic, and there would just be lower volume as both bigger players and traders took off?

Forex markets in forex markets may likewise on some of those not all of those not all of course especially the us are on some of course especially the more usspecific ones but.
It depends on the country / currency. If the country is on holiday, corresponding currency trading is closed.
