Correlation of Currency Pairs

Hi,

  Anyone could help me explaining the concept of correlation of currency pairs?

  I just need to understand, with an example (if possible), how can currency pairs be measured throughout correlation.


Thanks in advance!

Very simply, from the first example : EURUSD & USDJPY

EURUSD increases = with 1 EUR you can buy more & more USD

USDJPY increases = with 1 USD you can buy more & more JPY 

So with 1 EUR you'll be logically able to buy more & more JPY (= EURJPY increases)

 

Hi,

By experience, note that different trading strategies might require different correlation strategies or parameters. For example, a breakout strategy might require a specific correlation strategy to work with profitably, same for trend-following strategy.

Beware!
