What are the 7 major currency pairs?

Post by Peaktrader »

The forex market operates using seven major currency pairs. They are:
- EUR/ USD
-USD/JPY
-GBP/ USD
-AUD/ USD
-USD/ CAD
-USD/ CHF
-NZD/ USD.

The two currency pairs which dominate the trading volume in the world and dictate the market are EUR/USD and GBP/USD. Each of the currency pairs have distinct features. EUR/USD is very liquid and responsive to economic news in Europe and the US whereas GBP/USD can be volatile. So, it has the capabilities to lure short-term traders. It is important to know how each pair moves and the economic activities that drive them before investing in them.
