usd/jpy
The abbreviation for the U.S. dollar and Japanese yen (USD/JPY) pair or cross for the currencies of the United States (USD) and Japan (JPY). The currency pair shows how many Japanese yen (the quote currency) are needed to purchase one U.S. dollar (the base currency).
The pair is also known as trading the "gopher".
The USD/JPY tends to have a positive correlation with the USD/CHF and USD/CAD currency pairs because they all use the U.S. dollar as the base currency.
Yen is one of the most traded currencies in the world, especially due to its low interest rate since the Yen is used in carry trades.
