TYPES OF CURRENCY PAIRSWhen trading Forex, it is essential to know about the different types of currency pairs, as some pairs are much riskier to trade than others, especially for those with minimal trading experience. Major Currency Pairs Before we discuss major currency pairs, we should first list the major currencies individually. The eight major currencies are: US dollar (USD) Euro (EUR) British pound (GBP) Japanese yen (JPY) Swiss franc (CHF) Canadian dollar (CAD) Australian dollar (AUD) New Zealand dollar (NZD) As listed above, there are eight major currencies but there are only seven major pairs because a major pair includes the U.S. dollar. Major pairs are the most traded currency pairs on the forex market. They account for the highest average trade volume and have the most liquid markets, as well as the lowest risks and spreads offered by brokers. The seven major currency pairs are: EUR/USD – Euro / US dollar GBP/USD – British Pound / US dollar USD/JPY – US dollar / Japanese yen AUD/USD – Australian dollar / US dollar USD/CHF – US dollar / Swiss franc USD/CAD – US dollar / Canadian dollar NZD/USD – New Zealand dollar / US dollar Note that AUD/USD and USD/CAD are sometimes also referred to as commodity currencies. Minor Currency Pairs Minor currency pairs (also known as cross pairs or crosses) always include two major currencies but not the U.S. dollar. Crosses are not as popular and as highly traded as the major pairs. This means they can be riskier than a major pair and will attract wider spreads from brokers. Their liquidity can also be low at times, presenting a challenge for inexperienced traders in a thin volume environment. Here are a few examples of minor currency pairs: EUR/GBP – Euro / British pound EUR/JPY – Euro / Japanese yen GBP/JPY – British pound / Japanese yen AUD/NZD – Australian dollar / New Zealand dollar NZD/JPY – New Zealand dollar / Japanese yen GBP/CAD – British pound / Canadian dollar Exotic Currency Pairs Exotic currency pairs consist of a major currency paired with a currency from a developing and emerging nations as well as certain developed nations. These currency pairs trade in a far less liquid market compared to the majors and minors as they are traded less frequently. This causes their spreads to be much higher than those of the major and minor pairs. Here are a few examples of exotic currency pairs: EUR/TRY – Euro / Turkish lira USD/ZAR – US dollar / South African rand AUD/MXN – Australian dollar / Mexican peso USD/HKD – US dollar / Hong Kong dollar NZD/THB – New Zealand dollar / Thai baht CAD/NGN – Canadian dollar / Nigerian naira Risks and Spreads Major currency pairs have the most liquidity and as a result, attract lower spreads, whilst minor and exotic pairs are much riskier and attract wider spreads. Liquidity & Volatility Due to high liquidity in the major currency pairs market, they are consistent and predictable, whilst minor and exotic pairs can be volatile and extremely unpredictable at times. Please also see images below for visual examples of the difference in price behaviour of the different pair types. MAJOR PAIR & CROSS PAIR MAJOR PAIR & EXOTIC PAIR CROSS PAIR & EXOTIC PAIR Which is the best currency type to trade for new traders? We will be a posting an educational article on this in the future delving into details regarding this question. Trade safely and responsibly. BluetonaFX

Aussie to 0.71000?Here on the D1 timeframe I see a fine Wyckoff schematic playing out (Accumulation), with just the Creek remaining to get taken out which would consequently resort to taking out the daily Highs. Just moments ago, the H4 Lows were taken, with price reacting perfectly to an M15 Point of Interest and shooting all the way up off the back of some inflation data from the United States. With this move we have a potential LPS to enter off of to take the prices long (on the H4) for a very good rally. Why .71000? Personally i see no sufficient imbalance on price action looking to the left that would solidify any potential reversal points before this price point; so in my eye, i see that as some buy side liquidity to be taken by the smart money up until the supply zone sitting just above the .71000 area Hopefully this plays out beautifully, I would start looking for multiple entries once the D1 Highs are broken. Stay safe and trade safe. And don't forget to give a follow and a like. OANDA:AUDUSD

NZDUSD Long Trade Plan✅ Potential long opportunity if we see price respect the bullish structure, preferably price remain trading above 0.69 major level. ❌ Long bias invalidated when price trading below 0.6870 level. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Traders! if you like my ideas and do take the same trade, please write it in comment so we can manage the trade together .

Major Pairs Key Levels (Nov.29 - Dec.3)Hi everyone, Hope you have enjoyed the weekend. Every week, I mark weekly levels for each currency pair to see how price reacts to them. As you see in the charts, I have marked the last Week's and Last Month’s Highs and Lows for the 6 major pairs (actually they are 7 but there was no room for NZADUSD, but you can do that one by yourself as a practice) Why are these levels important to us? Because they are kind of support and resistance levels and when price approaches to them, any breakout or rejection on these levels is very important: (Lows act like support and Highs act like resistance) So, take a note for yourself and apply them on your chart to have an efficient setup for key levels. Mn : Monthly (Red Lines) , W: Weekly (Yellow Lines) I have a bearish bias for US Dollar this week and I think we might see a weakness on it against the other currencies.
