What impacts the USD/PHP exchange rate
In the forex market, the USD/PHP symbol represents the trading of the US dollar against the Philippine Peso. The Philippine Peso, also known as the 'Piso' is the official currency of the Philippines, and is a free floating currency that offers interesting trade setups for forex traders looking to trade currencies beyond the majors in the market. The US dollar, on the other hand, is the official currency of the United States of America and is the most popularly traded currency in the world, offering forex traders high liquidity and making it attractive to trade. The leading currency in the forex market is also the most popular reserve currency, and most leading central banks worldwide own some amount of USD. The PHP is considered an emerging market currency that experiences high levels of volatility based on the market sentiment. During a risk-on sentiment, traders flock to riskier instruments like the Philippine Peso. However, when markets trade with a risk-off sentiment, traders tend to sell off currencies like the PHP and move towards the safety of more stable instruments, which include the US dollar. As a result, a risk-on sentiment turns this pair bearish while a risk-off mood in markets drives bullish movement in the USD/PHP currency pair.
