What is Forex and the EUR/USD pair?

The foreign exchange market, better known as Forex (Foreign Exchange), is the financial market on which the world's currencies are traded. The EUR/USD pair represents the exchange rate between the Euro (the base currency) and the US Dollar (the quote currency). If EUR/USD is quoted at 1.1000, it means it takes 1.10 dollars to buy 1 euro.

The different types of currency pairs

The Forex market is organised into three broad categories:

Major pairs

They always include the US Dollar (USD) against another strong currency. EUR/USD is the queen of this category, followed by GBP/USD (Pound Sterling), USD/JPY (Japanese Yen) or USD/CHF (Swiss Franc). They offer the lowest spreads on the market.

Minor pairs (or crosses)

These are the pairs that do not include the US dollar, such as EUR/GBP (Euro / Pound) or EUR/JPY (Euro / Yen). They are slightly more volatile.

Exotic pairs

They pair a major currency with the currency of an emerging or smaller economy (e.g. USD/TRY for the Dollar against the Turkish Lira). Their spreads are generally wider.

The factors that influence the Euro/Dollar exchange rate

The EUR/USD price acts as a barometer of economic health between Europe and the United States. It is mainly influenced by:
The decisions of the European Central Bank (ECB) and the US Federal Reserve (FED), particularly regarding interest rates.
Economic indicators: inflation (CPI), unemployment, and the famous non-farm payrolls in the US (NFP).
Geopolitics: in times of crisis, the Dollar often acts as a safe-haven asset, which tends to push EUR/USD lower.

How to invest in the foreign exchange market?

The Forex market is decentralised. To access it, retail investors mainly use:

CFDs (Contracts for Difference)

This is the preferred method offered by RaiseFX. By using CFDs on our app, you bet on the rise (buy) or fall (short sell) of EUR/USD without ever physically holding the currencies.

The spot market (Spot FX)

This is the immediate exchange of one currency for another, often used by banks and large institutions.

Forward contracts and Options (Futures)

More complex derivative products, traded on regulated exchanges, mainly used by multinational companies to hedge against currency risk.

The pros and cons of trading EUR/USD

Like any instrument, trading EUR/USD has strengths and limitations you should know before you get started.

Exceptional liquidity

As EUR/USD is the most traded pair in the world, you can enter and exit the market at any time, with near-zero transaction costs (spreads).

A market open 24/5

Forex never sleeps during the week. From the Asian session (Tokyo) to the American close (New York), by way of Europe (London), you trade whenever you like.

Leverage

It lets you increase your investment capacity with reduced capital. On RaiseFX, you can trade EUR/USD with leverage of up to 1:500.

High volatility during announcements

While leverage multiplies your potential gains, the sudden volatility triggered by an ECB announcement can equally lead to rapid losses if your risk management is not strict.

Macroeconomic complexity

Unlike a company stock, a currency pair is influenced by the entire economy of two continents, which calls for solid fundamental analysis.
