Comdoll
Comdoll is a slang term in forex trading referring to 'commodity dollars' — the currencies of countries whose economies are heavily dependent on commodity exports. The three main comdolls are the Australian Dollar (AUD), Canadian Dollar (CAD), and New Zealand Dollar (NZD). Forex traders track commodity prices like iron ore, crude oil, and dairy alongside comdoll pairs, as these currencies tend to strengthen when raw material prices rise.
Example
“All three comdolls rallied together after China announced a major infrastructure stimulus package that boosted commodity demand expectations.”
