There are many currency pairs to choose from but which pairs should you trade? In my opinion, the currency pair(s) you choose to trade should be based on your trading style and trading experience.
Three main types of currency pairs are:
The majors: EUR/USD, USD/JPY, USD/CHF and GBP/USD.
The commodity pairs: USD/CAD, AUD/USD and NZD/USD.
The currency crosses: most popular are the EUR/GBP, EUR/JPY and EUR/CHF.

Divergence is a term which often comes back in forex technical analysis, it occurs when the price of the underlying currency pair and the indicator move in opposite directions. A bullish divergence can predict future upturns, while a bearish divergence can predict future downturns. Currency traders make trading decisions by identifying situations of divergence, where the price of a currency pair and indicators, such as the MACD, are moving in opposite directions.
