Minor Currency Pairs
Also called: minor pairs
Less-traded major-currency crosses without USD — e.g. EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY, GBP/JPY, EUR/CHF.
Definition
Minors (sometimes called ‘cross majors’) still have deep liquidity but wider spreads than majors. Often offer cleaner trends because they’re less driven by single-currency news.
