pepy Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Why some pairs moves slow is because of the liquidity problem or if not there are few people who speculate there makes the price rise slowly. Yes, there are some low liquidity pairs that moves so great but only during certain times and because that is popular currency too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myregister Posted March 14, 2016 Share Posted March 14, 2016 It is just like the world isn't it? Some fast some slow, some big some small. Usually pairs that move slow because there are lack of people who do buy and sell so the price tend to move in narrow range only and this is what people called as sideways, only 1-10 pips and then move back and the so on.

But i think you don't answer the question why some pairs moves so slow compared to the others You just stated the fact. If you know lack of liquidity also let the price to soar further and more volatile then high liquidity especially when two sides keep pulling the price and make a zig zag movement.

Bonnie Berry Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 This is mainly to do with their countries activity, so basically if there is any news it going to make the pair move more, but there are certain pairs (countries) which are stable and you won’t find too many surprises as say with Dollar, Euro or these sort of currencies where you will get surprise stuff every now and then. So, this is another reason why you see pairs moving slowly since there are investors very comfortable and relax and that shows in stable movements. I love to trade on violate pairs like EJ or UJ, it helps me with scalping while I am already getting a lot of benefit with low spreads, high leverage and many more such benefits with OctaFX.

omar-profits Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 They move slow because they might be low demanding pairs like some of the ones on the list that not a lot of traders trade cause of high spread or stagnant growth or being unpopular which will all lead to lower price. They move slow also cause the relationship between them is not too far off so they pretty much move in the same direction. Like the gbp and euro. They pretty much flow in the same direction economically. So there isn't much to move among themselves but pairs with differences in economics will move very sharply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pepen supendi Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 depending on the choice of the pair, if the major pairs certainly not too long in the movement, if we use the M15 timeframe will certainly be faster in its movement chart, but how comfortable we use timeframe. if we can use it correctly, it can be more comfortable in the trading process  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
francmorio Posted May 30, 2016 Share Posted May 30, 2016 Well according to the FreshForex mentors, the reason why some pair move so slow is due to some economics factors which affect the currency and make the currency move at the particular time,as for me I dont think that there is any other thing which do make currency or pair to move slowly except the economic factors of the country.

Bonnie Berry Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 It depends on which pair you’re talking about, if you talk about major pairs like EUR/USD then it moves slowly because there are so many  traders there up working, so it’s obvious that when there is so much trading going on, we will see the pair been stable, but obviously you can’t call that slow, but if there is clear one way terrific for positive or negative side then we will obviously find huge movement quickly, so we got to be careful of all these things in order to succeed. I like trading on pairs like EUR/JPY especially when scalping and thanks to OctaFX broker with their tiny spread from 0.1 pips, It’s ever easier especially during tough situations or news time.

tray22 Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 @skyrock , that is the essense of doing analysis this is the only means which we can use to predict the trend of the market remember that the trend of the market can only be predicted you cant just determine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myregister Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 So it is just the matter of words? Well, i think trend is predicted with using all analysis which we could use, not to mention some pairs usually moves slow because of low rate liquidity, this is normal if youhave small amount of traders to drive the price then it won't make much movement. Aside from that this pair usually doesn't have much speculator, it is moving but not so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skyrock Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 It is what that happen here some pair do move very slow it is the way to build a better understanding and ensure that you win forex is not that easy but first of all learn with passion to understand things here the most some pair will always move slowly because you never can tell what will happen to the country economic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansonudo2 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Yes the market move on its own we can control the market everything arise from the economic of the country which you are trading the forex business from what happen to their economic affect the market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tray22 Posted June 10, 2016 Share Posted June 10, 2016 Yes the economic of any country must surely affect the forex exchange because for example when the u.s economic is down the dollar will experience free fall and this affect the currency and other currency to be exchange to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myregister Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Yes the economic of any country must surely affect the forex exchange because for example when the u.s economic is down the dollar will experience free fall and this affect the currency and other currency to be exchange to it It is the matter of liquidity, some currency such as GBPUSD has many people trade with it and also EURUSD. I see both currency as one of the currency which has highest movement. If many people speculate in relatively shorter time then it means the pair will move towards the speculated position and create volatility in the market which moving the price.

Yes logically if pair major which many trader choose to traded will has good average movement due volume demand and supply will arise, and if any pair move slowly, it's mean on the market not occured big volume trasnaction because up and down currency will depending also with demand and supply in the market, but there are cross pair also often occur good average movement but spread is higher like as on gbpjpy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milo Beck Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Mostly every pair has it’s own trend and pattern according to which things go, so some pairs in general are slow movers while others are more violate, it’s why we got to be patience yet hungry to spot up any opportunity that comes our way.

myregister Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 Well, i don't think we need always be keep patient about this case, we also can be aggressive which of course depend on the time. In this case if the pair move slowly we could be aggressive, just look at scalper when the market is calmer they become more aggressive to take small profit open and close position and usuallly open more than one position.

radex78 Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I don't like too much aggressive in trading, open multiple order like as scalping with small target might easy to achieved logically, but actually we never know when the trend will begin, sometime suddenly to breakout and open multiple order also will increasing the risk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
