in my opinion exotic pairs are very rarely traded because they are less popular compared to other major pairs or minor pairs, which there are many favorite trades for these pairs.

exotic pairs are used by certain traders so why do brokers still provide these pairs because even though few traders use them, exotic pairs are a profitable pair for brokers because exotic pair spreads are quite high.

exotic pairs are rarely used by traders because many pairs are more volatile and profitable, if there are better pairs why choose pairs that are slow and not volatile.

the strongest reason is that exotic pairs are less volatile, so they are less profitable for trading especially scalpers will certainly never trade in exotic pairs because the spread is very large.

Possibly because exotic pairs are less well known, so less famous pairs are certainly rarely used by traders to gain profits, after all, I think exotic pairs are less profitable for the short term.

most likely because the exotic pair lacks good price volatility so there are fewer enthusiasts in exotic pairs, besides that the ecotic pair is often used as a pair to learn beginner trading.

The main reason is because exotic pairs are not very volatile, so only traders who want to be safe and slow are trading on exotic pairs or just additional pairs.

most likely in my opinion exotic pairs are very slow so it is not profitable even though there are also traders who use exotic pairs to gain profits.

exotic pairs are less volatile even though news or fundamental high impact is happening because exotic pairs come from developing country currencies which are quite slow to change.

exotic pairs are pairs that traders don't like, especially professional traders, in my opinion exotic pairs are only used for fun or just trying.

exotic pair has a fairly low volatility, because exotic pairs come from pairs of 2 different countries where one country is still a developing country so the currency is not volatile enough.

exotic pairs are less attractive in my opinion, in addition to slow price movements, there are also less enthusiasts, so the volatility is low, exotic pairs also have high spreads and usually often widen.

Why are exotic coral pairs used? the answer is simple because exotic pairs are not good price movements, less volatile so traders are rarely interested in the pair.

the reason is actually quite simple, because exotic pairs are not very volatile, in my opinion all traders know that, that's why this type of pair is rarely traded.

exotic pair less exciting, if there is a better pair and the movement is volatile why should you use a slow pair like exotic pair, it will actually reduce the profit potential that we will get.
