All forex pairs are quoted in terms of one currency versus another, Forex trading is the act of simultaneously buying one currency while selling another. Each currency pair has a "base" currency and a "counter" currency. The base currency is the currency on the left of the currency pair and the counter currency is on the right. For example, in EUR/USD, EUR is the "base" currency and USD the "counter" currency. A forex trader will buy a currency pair if he expects its exchange rate will rise in the future and sell a currency pair if he expects its exchange rate will fall in the future.
