What is Currency Strength?
Currency strength is a popular indicator used by Forex traders to make sense of price moves in the Forex market. It takes advantage of the price correlation between various Forex pairs. Currency strength is measured for 8 currencies (USD, JPY, EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, CHF, CAD) and is reported on a scale of 0 (weakest) to 10 (strongest).
It's calculated by performing real-time calculations on a large group of Forex pairs. It involves measurement of relative price moves over various sampling time-windows using our proprietary currency strength algorithm. All this heavy number crunching is done by our data servers in real-time, and delivered to your device with low latency and a fast refresh rate.
How can it be used for trading?
Typically a trader would look for extreme strength or weakness on a particular currency, and then focus their attention on trade setups involving related Forex pairs.
Currency strength can also be used to quickly identify the cause of a large move on a Forex pair. For example, if GBP/USD is trending upwards following an economic news announcement (e.g. US Non-Farm Payroll), the currency strength meter would immediately indicate whether the move was due to generalized GBP strength or USD weakness. If it was due to USD weakness, then you’d look for trade opportunities on other USD Forex pairs.

This a must have tool for any currency trader that utilizes the imbalances between currencies to make trading decisions. The tools provided in this app are second to none in the App Store. Very well done and I use it every day. It is on par with my desktop applications in both speed and accuracy, all in a sophisticated well thought out package. It has crossover alarms and various alarm setups that are very useful.
The only thing that could possibly make it better is to add acceleration alarms that alert you to the angle of the currency lines indicating strong and impulsive momentum.
