Hi guys,

Just wanted to know whether anyone could give advice on what forex pairs are good to trade alongside each other?

I've been reading about correlation etc but really I'm still a little confused about which pairs compliment each other well and don't cancel each other out during trends.

EUR/USD, GBP/USD, GBP/JPY and AUD/USD are currently the ones I'm thinking of going with.

Any advice?

Cheers

Mr P

I'd choose maximally uncorrelated set of currency pairs. For example:
EUR/JPY, GBP/CHF, AUD/NZD and USD/CAD.

I was wondering if anyone plays silver? or in this case, XAGUSD?

also consider the spread that your broker provides for each pair
