CAD/JPY is a minor forex pair that measures the Canadian Dollar's value against the Japanese Yen. This cross-pair combines two major commodity and safe-haven economies, making it an important vehicle for traders seeking exposure to both North American and Asian markets. With moderate daily trading volume, CAD/JPY offers sufficient liquidity for both retail and institutional traders looking to diversify beyond major pairs.
The price of CAD/JPY is primarily influenced by commodity prices—especially crude oil, as Canada is a major oil exporter—and by divergences in monetary policy between the Bank of Canada and the Bank of Japan. Japanese yen strength typically increases during periods of global risk-off sentiment, while the Canadian dollar tends to strengthen when oil prices rise and economic data from North America improves. Interest rate differentials between the two central banks also play a significant role in long-term directional trends.
At GCC Brokers, CAD/JPY is available with automatic execution and no manual intervention. Trade this minor pair on our Zero account with lower spreads or on our Standard account. GCC Brokers Limited is regulated by the FSC Mauritius.
CAD/JPY trades during standard forex market hours, following the global forex calendar; the exact hours, in server time, are in the specifications above. Liquidity is usually deepest during the overlap of North American and Asian trading sessions. GCC Brokers provides access throughout the forex week, allowing you to trade this pair whenever market conditions suit you.
Spreads are variable and depend on market conditions and your account. Standard and Pro have no commission, and Pro has tighter spreads; Zero has raw spreads plus a commission. The live spread is shown on this page.
CAD/JPY is primarily driven by crude oil prices, as Canada is a major petroleum producer, and by monetary policy divergence between the Bank of Canada and Bank of Japan. Risk sentiment also matters significantly—when global markets turn risk-off, the yen typically strengthens, pushing CAD/JPY lower. Interest rate differentials, employment data from Canada, and Japanese economic releases are key catalysts for price movement.
CAD/JPY can be traded across multiple timeframes, though as a minor pair it typically has lower volume than major pairs like EUR/USD. The pair is most liquid during Asian and North American overlap hours, making these the best periods for active traders. Day traders and scalpers should monitor volatility levels and ensure adequate spreads before committing capital to short-term strategies. Scalping is welcome. Practices that abuse prices or latency, such as latency arbitrage, are not allowed under the Client Agreement.
