ForexDictionary explains
Swissy
Forex traders have their own unique slang just as other fields of investment do. Referring to the Swiss franc and the USD/CHF pair as the Swissy is just one example. Many currencies have nicknames, as with the loonie, the kiwi and the Aussie. Currency pairs also have nicknames, but only a few are widely recognized like the Swissy and the cable (GBP/USD).
