What is a Currency Pair - Definition | Forex Dictionary

Un par de divisas es la cotizacion de una moneda frente a otra, como EURUSD o GBPJPY. La primera es la divisa base y la segunda la divisa cotizada; el precio indica cuanta divisa cotizada se necesita para comprar una unidad de la base. Por que importa: entender que estas comprando una divisa y vendiendo otra al mismo tiempo es la base para operar en Forex y para interpretar correctamente los movimientos del precio.

A currency pair is the quotation of one currency against another, such as EURUSD or GBPJPY. The first is the base currency and the second is the quote currency; the price indicates how much quote currency is needed to buy one unit of the base.

Why it matters: understanding that you are buying one currency and selling another at the same time is the basis for trading Forex and for correctly interpreting price movements.
