Understanding the pair
In USD/SEK the US Dollar is the base currency and the Swedish Krona is the quote currency. The rate tells you how many SEK one USD buys, so a rising USD/SEK means the US Dollar is strengthening against the Swedish Krona.
USD/SEK is an exotic pair: it combines a major currency with that of a smaller or emerging economy, so spreads, swap costs and the size of sudden moves are typically larger than for the majors.
Prices are quoted to 5 decimal places here. One pip is 0.0001, so on a standard lot of 100,000 USD a one-pip move is worth 10 SEK — use the pip calculator to convert that into your account currency.
Liquidity in USD/SEK is usually deepest when both home markets are open — the New York (08:00–17:00 New York time) and London (08:00–17:00 London time) sessions. See live session times on the market hours clock.
The world's main reserve and invoicing currency. The BIS 2022 Triennial Survey found the dollar on one side of about 88% of all FX trades, so US interest-rate expectations and risk sentiment ripple through almost every pair.
Central bank: Federal Reserve
Sweden's krona is a small, open-economy currency that is sensitive to European growth. The Riksbank, founded in 1668, is the world's oldest central bank still operating.
Central bank: Sveriges Riksbank
USD/SEK shows how many Swedish Krona (SEK) one US Dollar (USD) buys. USD is the base currency and SEK is the quote currency. If the rate rises, the US Dollar has strengthened against the Swedish Krona.
No. It is derived from the euro foreign exchange reference rates published by the European Central Bank once per working day around 16:00 CET. It is useful for reference, budgeting and calculator inputs, but it is not an executable trading quote — a broker's bid and ask will differ.
By convention one pip in USD/SEK is 0.0001 because the pair is quoted in SEK. On a standard lot of 100,000 USD, a one-pip move is worth 10 SEK. Brokers may quote an extra decimal (a pipette).
Liquidity is typically deepest when both home markets are open: the New York (08:00–17:00 New York time) and London (08:00–17:00 London time) sessions, and especially where they overlap.
