Currency Strength Monitor is a professional multi-currency strength indicator for MetaTrader 5 that analyzes and displays the relative strength of 8 major currencies (USD, EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, JPY, CHF, CAD) in real-time. The indicator calculates strength values by aggregating price movements across 28 currency pairs and normalizing them using ATR, providing traders with a clear visual representation of which currencies are strengthening or weakening.
Key Features:
- Multi-Currency Analysis — Monitors all 8 major currencies simultaneously using data from 28 currency pairs
- Two Strength Modes — Choose between Full historical strength calculation or Session-based strength for more targeted analysis
- ATR-Based Normalization — Uses ATR to normalize price movements, making strength values comparable across different pairs and timeframes
- Interactive Legend — Click on any currency button to show/hide that currency's line from the chart
- Current Pair Mode — One-click filter to display only the two currencies of the currently selected chart symbol
- Real-Time Right-Side Labels — Displays current strength values with currency names on the right side of the indicator window
- Smart Label Positioning — Automatically adjusts label positions to prevent overlapping when values are close
- Customizable Sessions — Configure up to 5 trading sessions for session-based strength calculations
- Visual Customization — Individual color settings for each currency line
- Configurable History Depth — Control how many historical bars to calculate
How It Works:
The indicator calculates each currency's strength by analyzing its contribution across all pairs where it appears. For example, USD strength is derived from EURUSD, GBPUSD, AUDUSD, NZDUSD, USDJPY, USDCHF, and USDCAD. When USD is the base currency, bullish movements contribute positively to its strength; when USD is the quote currency, bearish movements contribute positively. The raw values are then normalized by ATR percentage to ensure consistent scaling.
Use Cases:
- Identify strong vs. weak currencies for pair selection
- Confirm trend direction on currency pairs
- Spot potential reversals when currencies show divergence
- Correlate strength readings with your existing trading strategy
