What are Commodity Currency Pairs?

by Fxigor

What is Commodity Currency?
A commodity currency is a currency from countries with large amounts of commodity reserves such as Canadian CAD, Australian AUD, and New Zealand NZD. Commodity currency countries have a heavy dependency on the export of certain raw materials. Commodity currencies are tied to commodities and falling, or rising exports will lead to deflation or inflation; currency prices will go up or down.

Let us find some examples.

Example 1: Commodity price goes down or up

New Zealand dollar, Australian dollar, Canadian dollar, Norwegian krone, South African rand, Brazilian real, Russian ruble, Chilean peso, etc.. are commodity currencies. Some of these countries are developing countries (e.g., Burundi, Tanzania, Papua New Guinea) or strong export countries (NZD, AUD, CAD).
For example, oil “is a “fungible” commodity, which means that specific grades of oil are identical for oil trading purposes, regardless of where they were produced.” Canada exports old. If the oil price starts to rise, demand raise – Canada will profit, and CAD will go up. This is just an example; in reality, it is not just that simple.

China is the biggest producer in the world. If theChina’sP of going lower, production is going down, and China will not import commodities from many countries, some commodity currencies will go down.
