How to use a strength meter
Pairing a strong currency against a weak one gives you a clearer trend to trade. If GBP is green across its row and JPY is red down its column, GBP/JPY is likely moving strongly upward.
- Use it to choose which pair to trade, then confirm on a chart.
- Avoid pairs where both currencies are similar in strength. They tend to range.
- Strength changes during the day, so check again around the London and New York opens.
