About USD/MXN
The Mexican peso is the most liquid emerging-market currency and a long-standing carry favourite, with Banxico historically holding rates well above the Federal Reserve.
USD/MXN is highly sensitive to US trade policy headlines and to swings in global risk appetite, and crowded carry positioning means unwinds can be violent. Liquidity is best during New York hours.
USD/MXN sits in the exotics group on our board. A standard contract is 100,000 units of USD. A full-lot position moves through a meaningful amount of account equity in an ordinary session, so size the trade against the instrument’s daily range rather than against the margin requirement.

PipDig does not publish a numeric USD/MXN forecast
We will not invent a price target or a confidence score. What actually moves USD/MXN is the gap between consensus and the released data for its driver currencies, so the honest “forecast” is the schedule of catalysts below plus our published analysis — read those and form your own view.

USD/MXN FAQ
Where does the USD/MXN price on this page come from?
The USD/MXN figure is the European Central Bank's daily euro reference rate — one fixing per working day, shown with its reference date. It is a reference mid-rate, not a bid or ask you can deal on, and a fixing more than four days old is withheld rather than shown as current. It is for information only — use your broker's own prices before placing any trade.
What is a typical USD/MXN spread?
Spreads are set by each broker and vary by account type and time of day: they are tightest during the London and New York sessions and widen sharply around major data releases and in the thin hours after the New York close. Compare the live spread on each broker's own platform before you trade.
How much is one pip worth on USD/MXN?
On a standard contract of 100,000 units of USD, one pip is worth a fixed amount of the quote currency; its value in your account currency moves with the exchange rate, so check your broker's calculator for the current figure.
When can I trade USD/MXN?
Sun 22:00 – Fri 22:00 GMT, thin outside 07:00–17:00. Liquidity is not evenly distributed across those hours: expect the tightest spreads and the largest ranges when the primary session for this instrument overlaps with London or New York.
What does the overnight swap cost on USD/MXN?
Swap rates are set by each broker and change with policy rates, so we do not publish a figure. Most brokers apply a triple charge on Wednesdays to cover the weekend; positive rates are credited and negative rates are debited. Check the contract specification on your broker's platform.
