Currency Strength Meter

Market Data

Live-ranked strength of the eight major currencies from real-time FX rates.

Timeframe

Strength = average log-return of each currency against the other seven majors, from live ECB-sourced FX rates.

Currency strength ranking

Data from the Frankfurter API (European Central Bank reference rates), updated once per ECB business day — not tick-level real-time, but genuine live market data rather than a static snapshot.

How to use it

Using the Currency Strength Meter in 4 steps

  1. 1Choose a timeframe — 24 hours, 1 week, or 1 month.
  2. 2Read the ranked bar chart: currencies at the top are strengthening, those at the bottom are weakening.
  3. 3Cross-reference the live rates table for exact cross rates between any two currencies.

Why it matters

What this does for your trading

  • Helps you pick the strongest vs. weakest currency pairing for a higher-probability trade, instead of guessing a pair.
  • Confirms whether a pair's move is being driven by one currency or both.
  • A data-driven view of the market instead of a gut feeling about "EUR looking strong."
