Forex Strength And Comparison Week 3 / 2018

In the Currency Strength table, the NZD was the strongest currency while the USD was the weakest. There were some significant changes last week with the JPY gaining 5 points while the CAD lost 4 points.

On a week to week basis the NZD and AUD showed a very good performance while the USD and to a lesser extent the JPY and CHF showed a very weak performance. When looking at the development at the end of last week, the NZD and to a lesser extent the AUD continued to perform very well.On the other hand, the USD remained weak and so did the CHF.
The EUR remained Neutral last week and ended with a Score of 5. It is the highest Score from the group of Strong currencies and seems for that reason the best one from this group for the coming week.

Although some good performing currencies may have lost points they remain interesting when looking at all the currencies in the table as a whole. Same for the weak currencies that may have gained points. That is why the Classification of currencies and the Currency Score comparison are important also. We will look at this in more detail.
