What's Inside
Everything a fundamental forex trader needs
Built around one core principle: weights should reflect what moves price now, not what best describes the economy in the long run.
Fundamental Strength Score (0–100)
Quantitative index aggregating 22 macro indicators across 6 thematic tiers. Three interpretive bands: <45 Weak · 45–65 Neutral · >65 Strong. Auto-normalised for missing data.
Economic Heatmap
21-column matrix for all 8 currencies showing real values, colour-coded by strength and publication date per cell. Instantly identify the leading and lagging economies.
FX Performance 1M
Real 30-day return per currency vs a weighted G8 basket (ECB/Frankfurter data). Basket-corrected composite: each currency is measured against the other 7 rather than USD alone, eliminating USD-bias. Composition: 70% 1M return + 20% 1W return + 10% 3M return. The only 100% lag-free indicator — captures institutional flows in near real time. Weight: 8% (confirmator, not driver).
COT Positioning (CFTC)
Weekly net positions from the official CFTC Leveraged Funds report (Futures Only). Contrarian logic built in: extreme positions penalise the score instead of amplifying it. Price confirmation filter: COT score is attenuated when extreme positioning is not confirmed by recent price action. Weight: 6%.
