FAQs
EUR/USD, also written as EURUSD, shows how many US dollars are needed to buy one euro.
EUR is the base currency and USD is the quote currency. For example, if EUR/USD is trading at 1.15, one euro is worth 1.15 US dollars.
If EUR/USD rises, the euro is strengthening against the US dollar. If it falls, the dollar is strengthening against the euro.
The euro is the official currency of 21 EU countries and is managed through monetary policy set by the European Central Bank (ECB). The US dollar is managed through monetary policy set by the Federal Reserve.
EUR/USD is the world's most actively traded currency pair, accounting for around 21% of global foreign exchange turnover in the BIS April 2025 survey.
What is EUR/USD CFD trading?
EUR/USD CFD trading lets you trade movements in the euro-US dollar exchange rate without exchanging or taking delivery of either currency.
You can open a long EUR/USD position if you expect the euro to strengthen against the dollar, or a short position if you expect the dollar to strengthen against the euro.
Forex CFDs are traded using margin, so you only need to put up a portion of the position's full value. Leverage increases your market exposure and can magnify both profits and losses.
With Axi, one standard EURUSD lot represents EUR 100,000, while smaller trade sizes are also available.
The euro was introduced in 1999, making EUR/USD younger than many other major currency pairs.
Since then, the pair has moved through several major economic cycles. EUR/USD traded above 1.60 during the global financial crisis in 2008, while periods of European debt stress and relative US dollar strength later pushed the pair significantly lower.
In 2022, EUR/USD briefly traded below parity, meaning one euro was worth less than one US dollar, as the Federal Reserve raised interest rates aggressively and energy-market pressures weighed on the eurozone.
EUR/USD remains highly sensitive to changes in the relative outlook for US and euro-area interest rates.
Past performance is not a reliable indicator of future results.
EUR/USD is heavily influenced by differences between economic conditions and monetary policy in the United States and euro area.
Key factors include:
- Federal Reserve and ECB policy: Changes in interest rates and expectations for future monetary policy are among the most important drivers of EUR/USD.
- Inflation: US and euro-area inflation data can change expectations for central-bank policy.
- Economic growth: GDP, business surveys and consumer activity can affect demand for each currency.
- Employment data: US Nonfarm Payrolls and euro-area labour-market data can influence expectations for economic growth and interest rates.
- Bond yields: Changes in the difference between US and European yields can influence international capital flows.
- Market sentiment: During periods of uncertainty, changes in demand for the US dollar can have a significant effect on EUR/USD.
- Political and geopolitical developments: Elections, fiscal policy, trade disputes and geopolitical events can affect both currencies.
EURUSD traders often monitor:
- Federal Reserve and ECB interest-rate decisions
- US CPI and euro-area inflation
- US Nonfarm Payrolls
- US and euro-area GDP
- PMI and business activity surveys
- US and European bond yields
- Federal Reserve and ECB speeches
- Major US and European political or fiscal developments
