How to read this

This isn't a price chart — it's a ranking. Each currency is compared against all seven of the other major currencies at once (28 pairs total), not just against the US Dollar. A currency's "strength" is the average of how much it moved against every other major currency over that timeframe.

  • The number in the box (#1–#8) is the rank for that timeframe — #1 is the strongest of the 8 currencies right now, #8 is the weakest.
  • The percentage underneath is the actual average move, so you can see not just who's strongest but by how much. A currency ranked #1 at +0.74% is showing much more real momentum than a currency ranked #1 at +0.03%.
  • The four columns (1H / 4H / 1D / 1W) let you compare short-term momentum against the bigger picture. A currency can be weak on the 1-hour column but strong on the 1-week column — that usually means a brief pullback inside a longer uptrend, not a real reversal.
  • Green = relatively strong, red = relatively weak — this is always relative to the other 7 majors, not a judgment about the currency's absolute value or the country's economy.

How traders typically use this: the basic idea is pairing the strongest currency against the weakest one. If JPY is ranked #1 and CHF is ranked #8 on the same timeframe, that points to JPY/CHF (or CHF/JPY, depending on quoting convention) as a pair with real momentum behind it — more "energy" in the move than pairing two currencies sitting in the middle of the pack. This is a starting point for finding which pairs are worth a closer look, not a signal to trade on by itself.

This is not financial advice. Currency strength is a momentum snapshot, not a prediction — always confirm with your own chart analysis and risk management before trading.
