I would appreciate if someone could give me a detailed process of what happens to both sides of the money when it is converted.


Lets say I have 10 million dollars and I convert it to all yen.

Does the dollar simply dissapear from the world pool of dollars with a bigger pool of yen?

I know its elementary to some of you , but I do not deal much with currency.

Thanks for your input in advance.
 
"converting $ to Yen" means you sell $ and buy Yen... So there's a counterparty who does the exact opposite: selling Yen and buying $.

It's the same as selling gold for example: You convert gold into $ (or whatever currency you want).
