How Currency Strength Is Calculated
The score is simple enough to audit and stable enough for traders to compare across timeframes.
Collect all relevant pair percentage changes for USD, EUR, GBP, JPY, CHF, CAD, AUD, and NZD.
Use the percentage change directly when the currency is the base currency.
Invert the percentage change when the currency is the quote currency.
Average the collected values to get a strength score. Positive means stronger; negative means weaker.
USD/JPY +0.50 contributes +0.50. EUR/USD -0.30 means USD is quote, so it contributes +0.30. GBP/USD +0.20 contributes -0.20 for USD. USD/CAD +0.10 contributes +0.10. The USD score is the average of those contributions.
How to Use the Forex Heat Map
Read Strength and Weakness
Green cells show a currency gaining against another currency, while red cells show weakness. Stronger color intensity signals a larger move and a clearer momentum imbalance.
Use the ranked list first on mobile. It gives the clearest answer: strongest at the top, weakest at the bottom.
Confirm Price Action
A strength meter is a derived indicator, not price itself. It should not be used alone. Confirm market structure, support, resistance, Fibonacci retracement levels, and news risk before planning a trade.
Pair Strong Against Weak
The highest-momentum candidates often come from pairing the strongest currency against the weakest. If USD is strongest and JPY is weakest, USD/JPY becomes a cleaner watchlist idea than a mixed-strength pair.
