What forex pairs do you like to trade?

This isn't a bullshit question. I trade Eur/usd every night. I have been for the last 4 - 7 months. Wondered if there was a better/smoother pair out there that moved more. Sometimes, eur/usd just doesn't seem to move much in the hours of 12:00 EST - 6 am EST which are the hours I trade. Anyone tried eur/jpy. Was going to try gbp/usd but not sure about it because it looks like a wild beast. I use a 15 pip stop loss so wanting something more smooth and but still move in long segments. Not sure if that exists or not, lol. I might give gbp/usd another try. It's hard for me to focus on more than one pair, though. Not sure I can do more than one. I guess I was looking for one that was less choppy and more trendy. Let me know what you guys like. Thanks

EUR/JPY is my favorite pair. Big moves, clear trends, clear price actions - I love it.

I'm quite partial to gbp/nzd, gbp/aud, gbp/cad, eur/nzd, eur/aud, eur/cad. All are fantastic when they go for long, long trend moves but are best avoided during ranging periods due to the high spread. Not many brokers even offer all of them.
GBP/NZD in particular is my fave since in a good week you can easily make 1000+ pips.
