Major currency pairs
The most widely traded pairs are commonly called the “majors”. They involve currencies such as the USD, EUR, JPY and GBP.
Popular pairs include EUR/USD, USD/JPY, GBP/USD and USD/CHF.
Commodity currencies
Pairs like AUD/USD, USD/CAD and NZD/USD are often grouped as “commodity pairs” because their economies are closely tied
to natural resources and global commodity demand.
