Never sell anything. Buy gear you like and will use a lot. That's its greatest value.

But you don't need to buy the schtuff to profit from fluctuating exchange rates. Just go to the nearest bank and buy the dollars themselves, and sell them when there's enough profit. ;-)
Dollars don't make so much music while you hold onto them, though. Investing in something you enjoy and/or can make use of -- such as a wisely-chosen synth, classic motorcycle, or painting -- provides value beyond, and independent of, the monetary worth of the object.

Obvious, I know, but it bears stating explicitly.

There are better investments.

Many people have lost the "currency exchange" gamble, even when the currency being bought was US dollars or UK pounds or Yen.
