Features include access to a dedicated currency strength data feed, bar charting, line charting, multiple time-frames plus much more. 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. FAQ’s 1. How is this iPad Version different from the iPhone version of the Forex Strength Meter?
