    Leading forex broker rounds out Swiss Franc and Hong Kong Dollar offerings

    New York, NY (PRWEB) July 15, 2011

    OANDA Corporation, provider of innovative online foreign exchange trading, has added eleven more currency cross pairs to its online forex trading platform. The new pairs are AUD/CHF, NZD/CHF, SGD/CHF, AUD/HKD, CAD/HKD, CHF/HKD, EUR/HKD, GBP/HKD, HKD/JPY, NZD/HKD, SGD/HKD. The forex broker now offers Swiss Franc (CHF) and Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) cross pairs for all the major currencies.

    The Swiss Franc has become a safe haven currency for investors in recent years, and European clients who take advantage of the recent launch of OANDA Europe will appreciate the flexibility of accessing additional Swiss Franc pairs.

    “We listened to the requests of our growing trader base in Europe and Asia,” said Michael Stumm, CEO of OANDA Corporation. “These new pairs should consolidate our reputation for outstanding forex liquidity in these two markets, as we continue to add pairs based on client demand.”

    OANDA traders now have access to 76 currency pairs, including all of the major pairs and crosses to major Asian currencies such as the Hong Kong Dollar, Thai Baht, and Indian Rupee. OANDA remains the only major online forex broker to offer trading access to the Chinese Yuan (USD/CNY), which it introduced in 2007.
