I have seen according to my trading experience by and large traders in particularly the newcomers depend on only EURUSD which is mainly considered as a bass currency pair in this market place. but I think for increasing our trading experience very rapidly we the traders have to trade other major currency pair.

because usually the spread is large enough so that most traders are reluctant to trade on these pairs

One of the reasons why traders in the world rarely use exotic pairs such as USDMXN or others is because almost every broker in this pair has a large spread so of course it will reduce the probability of profit in trading.

usually because the spread factor is quite large or it could be because the movements are not too attractive so it is not good for trading

This is probably because the water is more difficult to predict and have a big sorre compared to major pairs

This is because when learning to trade, it is rare to immediately know other pairs other than the major pairs that are commonly used

because usually the daily range is quite large so it is too risky and has a fairly large spread value when compared to major pairs in general

Because this pair usually the value of the spread is quite large, so once our initial transaction has given a minus value that is quite large, so even a lot of traders are also lazy to trade in pair besides major

maybe because the range of movement is very large so that it creates a big risk too, therefore many traders do not want to trade in pairs like this

Maybe because less desirable as a pair that is not too appetizing for traders. But there are also those who trade using exotic pairs, the most important thing is how to trade our system

Please note that trading in Exotic pairs has large spreads, which is why many traders avoid trading in Exotic pairs.

I don't really understand this maybe people tend to trade currency pairs that need to be active like USD GBP jpy and others later I'll try to find out why
