Some of the currencies I prefer trading are EUR/USD, GBP/USD, USD/CAD and USD/CHF. It should mainly depend on your knowledge about the said currency pair. There are some people who trade exotics also and quite successfully.

{quote} Oh, I mean when you click on it, a small window will appear, where you will see a list with all servers / nodes of your broker. You are connected to one of these servers (most often to the one with lower "ms"). How much is the value in "ms" of the server that you are connected ? So I can tell you, whether your connection is good...
Ohhh, I see. The value is 9.51ms.

That's very good to hear. I confess I don't actually know much about that, I just noticed my execution speed was good.

My favorite three are GBP/JPY, EUR/JPY and EUR/GBP. I'll watch GBP/USD and AUD/GBP, too, and maybe a couple of different ones if nothing is happening on the first five choices. But I hardly EVER trade EUR/USD, because for my trading style, that pair is just so S-L-O-W......

Regardless of which pairs you like, I believe it is advantageous to have two pairs that you watch a lot, so that you have a very good feeling for how they move under different circumstances (different openings, time of day, size of moves, etc.) and then just a few more that you look at. Otherwise you can easily get overwhelmed looking at all the pairs and all the timeframes.

Just my two pips worth....

Focus in on trading the pair you have the most luck with..
Trading is individual and if you seem to always be winning on one pair stick with it..
If your always winning on A/U don't switch to G/J just cuz it moves more each day.
Stick with A/U!
Its that simple!
The only system that will work is one designed by and for yourself.

Every pair is good if you know how to use it , we the traders should choose the pair which is more appropriate to the concept of trading that will be used , if you love doing scalping should choose the pair which has lowest trading spreads , otherwise you can fall a great trouble.

GBP/JPY is one of the currency pairs that tracks best, rising and falling with stocks and commodities. When world economies look good, stocks and commodities rise whilst bonds fall. When things go the other way, the situation reverses.

I think it is also considered the most volatile pair out of all popular currency pairs.

Yes I do, since it’s much volatile trading pair, that’s why I take extra care on that, like more conformations of entry points.

Yea it is the most volatile pair, however as we know during high volatility the spread gets wider almost on every pair and broker. That's why I don't prefer to trade it, because the spread will get wider very often. The best trading pairs for me are the pairs with tightest spreads: EURUSD, USDJPY, EURJPY and AUDUSD

Same here, I also prefer trading with major pairs because of the tightest spreads. I don't want to burn my hands with the wilder spreads of other pairs.
