At Exor Company, we provide traders with an opportunity to trade Forex CFDs in the world's largest and most liquid financial market. The foreign exchange (FX) market is a vast landscape, offering traders the chance to trade currency pairs from every corner of the world. Among these pairs, there are a few worth mentioning which dominate the FX market, referred to as the 'majors'.
The four most traded currency pairs in the world have been coined the 'majors'. They involve the following currencies: euro, US dollar, Japanese yen, and pound sterling. The most popular pairing among them is the EUR/USD, followed by the USD/JPY, GBP/USD, and USD/CHF pairs respectively.
Apart from these majors, there are a few other currencies that are frequently traded and deserve a mention. Informally known as the 'commodity pairs', the AUD/USD or 'Aussie', USD/CAD, and NZD/USD pairs are commonly traded in the FX market. These currencies derive their nickname from the fact that they come from countries that possess large quantities of natural resources.
