12 Months Currency Score Strength

The 12 Months Currency Strength and the 12 Months Average are provided here below. This data and the “12 months currency classification” are considered for deciding on the preferred range. Because it is not ideal nor desired to change the range for a currency every single month, we perform several checks to avoid this.

1. First of all the strength over a period of 12 months. See each row for more information.
2. Then the 12 months average, see the last row called “Avg. 12 M.”
3. The number of months that a currency is stronger than another currency can also be evaluated.
4. The TA Charts for each Time Frame can also be consulted.
5. Besides these the “12 monhts Currency Classification” chart of each currency is also consulted and compared.

 

As can be seen in the “Currency Strength Table” here above the GBP has lost strength lately and is at the same 12 Months Average score as the EUR, AUD and the CAD which are all weak currencies. For that reason the GBP changed classification from “Average” to “Weak”.

Below you can see the Monthly Currency Score Chart with 24 months data as a reference. showing the the average currencies, the CHF and the NZD, with the GBP being a weak currency.
