Observing Crossovers for Direct Trading

Even if you don't plan to trade cross currency pairs, but only want to trade the main US dollar direct, you can still use cross currency pairs to help you make better trading decisions.

Here is an example.

Cross currency pairs can provide clues to the relative strength relationship between each major currency pair.

For example, when you see the euro/USD and GBP/The US dollar has issued buying signals, but the problem is that you can only trade in one currency pair.

Which one should you choose?

If you just look at your crystal ball and start guessing the results, you may not get a good answer.

To obtain the correct answer, you can observe the euro/GBP Cross Market. If Euro/The pound is declining, which means that it is stronger compared to the euro at this time.

So, the correct answer should be to buy pounds/USD, not EUR/The US dollar is stronger because the pound is stronger than the euro.

Due to the weaker performance of the euro compared to the pound sterling, if the euro performs stronger than the dollar, then the euro/The strength of the US dollar is weaker than that of the British pound/USD.

If the US dollar weakens overall, choose to long the pound/USD, you may receive more returns because of the GBP/The rise of the US dollar will be better than the euro/USD.

All in all, pounds/The US dollar is a better trading option.

You can also analyze the relative strength of any major currency pair.
