What it is
A currency pair — the price of one currency in terms of another: how many US dollars one British pound buys. Traders call it “cable”, after the transatlantic telegraph cable that once carried the rate. It depends on Bank of England and Federal Reserve rates, UK inflation and politics, and overall demand for the dollar. The currency market runs around the clock from Sunday evening to Friday evening; it is closed at weekends.
