1. Currency as in for personal use?
At a travel agent, post office, bank
The exchange rate depends on the value of the £/$ against the value of the other country - baically, if the economy is doing well, we get more of their money for ours, and if it's rubbish, we get less.
2. I believe you are talking about "forex trading" most of forex trading is done between banks, governments and speculators - see this link with more information

Anyone can now trade in forex online through sites such as

And learn how to do it through sites such as

Basically the main consideration for traders is "how do I make a profit out of this deal"
