About this tool

Method: for each currency we take its log return against the dollar from its pair (EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD and NZDUSD as quoted; USDJPY, USDCAD and USDCHF with the sign flipped, since the dollar is their base), with the dollar itself at zero. We then subtract the average of all eight, so each number is the currency against the whole basket and the eight sum to zero.

Periods: 1 day = the latest daily bar, 1 week = 5 bars, 1 month = 22 of the broker’s bars. Past strength describes what happened; it has no measured power to tell what comes next.

Frequently asked questions

Why are crosses such as EURJPY not used?

A cross rate is, to within the spread, the product of the two dollar pairs, so it repeats information already in the calculation rather than adding any.
