The GBPZAR quotation consists of the British pound sterling and South African rand. This instrument is not popular in the global market, but it's the only chance for S. Africa to introduce its currency to Forex. So, this quotation is widely used in the South African Republic.

The GBPZAR quotation is highly volatile, and there's almost no market analysis for this pair. So, this instrument is mainly used by traders ready to make their own predictions. Only experienced traders dare to trade such an exotic pair.

To predict the GBPZAR's moves, you need to consider economic stats on the UK and S. Africa and the US: the USD influences the two currencies very much. In the first place, pay attention to inflation rates, the labor market, interest rates, and trade balances.

Evaluating the state of the UK economy, look at its industrial, financial, legal service, and foreign trade sectors. When it comes to South Africa, raw materials come on stage: the country exports ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals, precious metals, and diamonds. The demand and production of those resources determine the GBPZAR rate.

Despite seemingly chaotic fluctuations, you can still make profits from the GBPZAR. This pair is suitable for short-term trades. Experience and reliable trading strategies are essential here.

Risk warning: Trading in FX and CFDs entails high risk of losing capital.

Interesting facts about the GBPZAR (British Pound to South African Rand)

The GBP/ZAR pair is called an exotic one. Since 2020 the GBP/ZAR rate has experienced serious changes.

Trading GBP to ZAR diversifies a trader’s portfolio. However, before you choose this pair, think about the risk factors. For example, the ZAR is an emerging currency, which means it has less liquidity. Less liquidity results in wider spreads. Trading this currency may have a higher price than a trader expects.

The symbol of the British pound sterling is "£". It comes from the Latin letter "L" (the word "libra" is believed to be the origin of the modern word "pound"). Why the letter was stylized like it is remains unknown.

Except for Great Britain, the British pound is the official currency of Jersey, Guernsey, the Isle of Man, South Georgia, Gibraltar, the South Sandwich Islands, as well as the British Antarctic Territory, and the Tristan da Cunha - a remote group of volcanic islands in the south of the Atlantic Ocean.

In 1961, South Africa left the Commonwealth and declared the South African Rand its official currency. Be careful with 200 ZAR notes, as they are thought to be the most counterfeited ones in the country. Some businesses won’t accept them as a payment method.

From 1961 to 1982, the ZAR was even stronger than the American dollar. There was also a time when the banknotes had one side with English writing and one with Afrikaans.

The best time to trade GBP/ZAR is when the market offers higher liquidity, which is during the European trading session, as well as between 11:00 and 18:00 (GMT+3, indicated in LiteFinance trading platform).
