Currency Distribution Of Global Foreign Exchange Market Turnover

The US dollar continues to decline in terms of percentage share of daily foreign exchange market turnover, however it is still the most-traded currency by quite some ways—accounting for an 84.9% share of average daily turnover in 2010.

The Australian and Canadian dollars each saw a big increase in market share between 2007 and 2010, as did the market share of emerging market currencies.
