GBP/CAD
This is considered a major cross-currency pair. As crosses, the CAD is influenced by economic indicators domestically and in the U.S, while the GBP finds influence from UK and EU stats. With the Canadian Dollar also a commodity, oil prices also have a greater impact on the CAD, with rising oil prices bearish for the pair. While the pair is considered liquid, transactions account for less than 2% of the total daily transactions across the FX market.
