This
is the article "Forex Ranking and Rating list" for the coming week, the
article "Forex Strength and Comparison" has also been published this weekend.
When looking at the Top 10 in the Weekly Ranking and Rating list we can see that for the coming week the following stronger currencies are well represented for going long: CHF(3X) with the JPY(3X) followed by the AUD(2X). The weaker currencies are the GBP(5X) followed by the NZD(3X) with the CAD(2X).
A nice combination for coming week may be e.g:
For analyzing the best pairs to trade looking from a longer term perspective the last 3 months currency
classification can be used in support.
This is updated on this weekend and is provided here for reference purposes:
Strong: USD / JPY / CHF. The preferred range is from 6 to 8.
Average: EUR, AUD, NZD. The preferred range is from 3 to 5.
Weak: GBP, CAD. The preferred range is from 1 to 2.
The charts are provided in the following article: "Forex Currency Score Classification for Wk13".
When comparing the 3 months currency classification with the pairs mentioned in the Ranking list above some would then be less interesting. On the other hand these pairs are on the top of the list partly also because of their volatility. It seems then best to take postitions for a short term and take advantage of the high price movements.
With the FxTaTrader Strategy these pairs are not traded because these would be trades in the 4 Hour chart or in a lower Time Frame. Nevertheless they may offer good chances for the short term trader.
When comparing the 3 months currency classification with the recent Currency Score, as provided in the image above, we can determine the deviations. In the article "Forex Strength and Comparison" this is analyzed in more detail. Currencies with a high deviation seem less interesting to trade because they are less predictable. These currencies are at the moment e.g. the USD, NZD and the CAD. Unless they offer a clear opportunity based on the longer term they are avoided.

Currency Score for Week 13 / 27-March-2016

The Currency Score is my analysis on the 8 major currencies based on the technical analysis charts using the MACD and Ichimoku indicator on 4 Time Frames: the monthly, weekly, daily and 4 hours.
