GBP/USD overview
Overview
Costs & Margins
-
GBP/USD is a forex pair comprising of the Great British pound and the US dollar. It tells you the current exchange rate of USD into GBP – or how many dollars you’d need to buy a single pound.
The pair is nicknamed ‘Cable’, as a submarine cable under the Atlantic Ocean was used to transmit the current exchange rate for the pair. Today it is one of the four top-traded FX pairs on the markets, alongside EUR/USD, USD/JPY and AUD/USD.
GBP/USD is one of the oldest FX pairs, first quoted back in 1866. It tends to trade with a positive correlation to EUR/USD.
