Currency strength meter MT4 and MT5
FXC Currency Strength is a free currency strength meter that puts the 8 major currencies on one bar from weak to strong, measured across all 28 pairs. It rates your chart's pair and lists the pairs furthest apart.
A currency's reading is how far it has moved against the other seven over the last 12 closed bars, each pair in its own normal size. 0 is unchanged, and the scale runs from -10 to +10.
It does not place trades. It shows you the picture, and you decide.

Currency strength meter features
8 currencies on one bar
Each flag sits at its reading from weak to strong, with a streak from where it was 3 bars ago.
All 28 pairs
Every currency is measured against the other seven, not just the dollar.
Moves in their normal size
Each pair's move is divided by its own usual move, so a JPY cross and a CHF cross count alike.
Four timeframes at once
Pills show your pair's gap on M15, H1, H4 and D1, whatever timeframe the chart is on.
Best pairs
The three widest gaps among the pairs your broker quotes, with dots for the timeframes that lean the same way.
No repaint on the live bar
Readings come from closed bars, so the live bar never moves them. They change when a bar closes.
Alerts
A currency reaching your level, or a new strongest or weakest. Popup, sound, push or email. Off until you turn them on.
Readable by EAs
Eight buffers hold each currency's reading, -10 to +10, for the last 300 closed bars.
FXC Currency Strength: questions, inputs and versions
Questions about FXC Currency Strength
Is it really free?
Yes. It is yours to keep, on MT4 and MT5.
Does it place trades for me?
No. It is an indicator. It shows you the picture, and you place the trade.
Do I need an account?
No. The download starts straight away. You need one to leave a review.
Why does the panel show fewer than 28 pairs?
Your broker doesn't quote them all. Each currency is averaged over the pairs that are there, the footer turns amber, and its tooltip names the missing ones.
Does it work on gold or an index?
Yes, as a reading of the one major currency in that symbol: on XAUUSD the card shows the dollar alone. On a chart with none of the 8, it lists the pairs with the widest gaps.
Does it repaint?
Not on the live bar: readings use closed bars, so they change when a bar closes. A chart reload works them out again from your broker's stored bars.
Can an EA read the strength?
Yes. Buffers 0 to 7 are EUR, GBP, AUD, NZD, USD, CAD, CHF and JPY, from -10 to +10, for the last 300 closed bars.
