Major currency pairs in forex?


The major currency pairs in forex are those that involve the US dollar (USD) and one of the other major currencies:

  1. EUR/USD (Euro and US dollar)
  2. USD/JPY (US dollar and Japanese yen)
  3. GBP/USD (British pound and US dollar)
  4. USD/CHF (US dollar and Swiss franc)
  5. AUD/USD (Australian dollar and US dollar)
  6. USD/CAD (US dollar and Canadian dollar)
  7. NZD/USD (New Zealand dollar and US dollar)

These currency pairs are the most traded and liquid in the forex market, accounting for the majority of the trading volume. Other currency pairs that don't involve the US dollar are called minor or exotic currency pairs.
