You want the best rates, and yet you can never be sure whether you got them or not. One of the easiest and confirmed ways of doing this is using <strong>live currency rates<\/strong> when you book your forex. That way, whether you are buying or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/foreign-exchange\/sell-forex-online\">selling currency<\/a>, you can watch forex live and get the best rate. Read on to know how.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-1\"><strong>1. Pick the right time to get your forex<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>None of us can truly predict the market. So, how do you know what is the right time? When you use <strong>live currency rates<\/strong> in your forex transaction, you can track small changes and buy your currency when it drops, and sell it when it goes up.<\/p>\n<p>According to RBI, you can now purchase forex 60 days prior to your trip abroad, giving you a 60-day window to pick the right time. We recommend buying forex at least 7 days prior, if not 60, so you are not forced to go with today\u2019s <strong>live currency rates<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/foreign-exchange\/forex-rate-card\">Forex rates today<\/a> might be lower, but tomorrow they could go up. And if you have the time, you can sell some of your forexes to make a quick buck on the side.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-27256 size-full\" title=\"live currency rates\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/05\/onlinemoneyblog2.jpg\" alt=\"live currency rates\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"section-2\"><strong>2. Select the right currency exchanger<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>Each financial organisation will have a slightly different conversion rate, some higher and some lower. If you don\u2019t do your research and look for a service that offers you the lowest, the transaction might end up proving more expensive for you.<\/p>\n<p>With <strong>live currency rates<\/strong>, it is a convenient time to get the right forex converter so you exchange your hard-earned money at live <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/check-before-you-get-currency-exchange\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>currency exchange<\/strong><\/a> rates and ensure that you get the best deal possible.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<h4><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thomascook.in\/blog\/\/everything-about-foreign-currency-exchange\/\">Must read:\u00a0Everything About How To Exchange Foreign Currency While Traveling From India.<\/a><\/h4>\n<\/blockquote>\n<h2 id=\"section-3\"><strong>3.

You have the option to select and lock-in your preferred currency exchange rate.
