Excuse me, but could you explain to me in simple terms how currency exchange rates actually work? I've heard that they fluctuate all the time, but I'm not quite sure what factors contribute to these changes. Are they influenced by the economy, politics, or something else entirely? And how do traders and investors use these rates to their advantage? I'd really appreciate it if you could shed some light on this complex topic for me.
