What is the Currency Strength Indicator?
A currency strength indicator or meter shows the trader visually which currencies are currently strong compared to other currencies as well as which ones are the weakest. Currency strength is determined by how its exchange rate moves in comparison to other currencies and averages them based on the number of its pairs that’s used on the strength model.
A major benefit of using the Forex Strength indicators is that they are simple to understand which is very appealing for new traders. You can just look at a simple graphical representation and see which currencies are faring well or performing poorly.
The value that is given by the strength model to a currency can be used for finding the strongest and weakest currencies and you will be able to trade former against the later.
