Carry trade means borrowing a low-interest currency (like JPY) to buy a high-interest currency. You earn the interest rate differential daily. Works in stable markets but can unwind violently in risk-off environments.

Classic carry trade: Short USD/JPY (short low-rate JPY, long higher-rate USD). But this strategy requires large capital and patience — not for short-term traders.
