Currency Strength Meter

A currency strength meter scores each currency on its own instead of quoting pairs. Every pair price mixes two currencies: EUR/USD falling can mean euro weakness, dollar strength, or both. The meter separates them by aggregating how each currency behaves across all 28 pair combinations of the eight majors, so you can see at a glance which side of a pair is doing the work.

The IntelliTrade scanner evaluates trend direction for all 28 pairs formed by USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD, NZD, CAD and CHF on daily and 4-hour charts, weights each pair by its trend confidence, and nets the result per currency onto a -100 to +100 scale. +100 means the currency was strong against everything it trades against in that reading; -100 means weak across the board; scores near zero mean no clear one-sided pressure.

This free page shows yesterday's final daily reading and is refreshed once per day. The date of the reading is always shown above the meter. The live meter in IntelliTrade Pro updates through the trading day and adds an intraday reading on a 15-minute cadence, with data-freshness indicators.

It compares each currency's score with the previous trading day's final reading, so you can see which currencies gained or lost strength into the close. When no usable previous reading exists, for example after a long market holiday, the column is omitted rather than showing a misleading figure.

No. The meter is a measurement of recent trend behaviour, not a recommendation. Strength readings describe what already happened in the market; they do not predict what happens next, and IntelliTrade does not provide trade signals. Traders typically use strength context alongside their own analysis and risk management.
