The primary exceptions to this rule are the British Pound, the Euro and the Australian Dollar. |

| Bid Price
The bid is the the price at which the market is prepared to buy a specific Currency in a Foreign Exchange Contract or Cross Currency Contract. At this price, the trader can sell the base currency.
