Examples of pairs you can research on the platform. Contract details, available leverage and pricing are shown in your account or the applicable service documentation.
Major pairs

Minor pairs
Crosses that do not include the US dollar, often with narrower trading windows.
Exotic pairs
Pairs involving a major currency and an emerging-market currency. They can be less liquid and more volatile.
