Fast moving currency

{quote} I am more of a technical analysis trader myself, but I do agree that you should regularly check a Forex calendar for any upcoming volatility. Not doing so is very unresponsible.
I agree with this. The Forex calendar could be one of your best friends if you know how to benefit from it.
I have developed a tool for this. It is a strength meter that automatically categorizes the pairs into a usable and visual format. You can run multiple versions of this indicator, with different timeframes.

I agree. Not to mention that Forex Factory has a fantastic forex calendar that provides very detailed information, if you visit here it's always a good idea to check their calendar too.

Wow, this indicator looks amazing Could you please advise, whether the green ones are most volatile pairs ? Additionally, if you share the indicator, will be great Thanks.
eur/NZD I find to be fast moving

{quote} I see, I see. I rarely trade that pair as I am generally wary of all GBP pairs but maybe I should look into it.
Thanks for your reply mate! Till now no trade (in this month) on GBPJPY.
GBPNZD is the Godzilla of currency pairs sometimes moving 200+ pips in a day.

Please be careful with this pair in light also of Brexit indecisions.

Yes, it’s a volatile trading pair & usually, I don’t use this trading pair. Usually I use only GBPUSD & GBPJPY among of GBP pairs.

{quote} I think, it’s not hard to identify the active pairs; like I see GBPJPY is one of the most volatile trading pair! here, 100+ pips movement is very common.
USDJPY is even more active. On critical news releases, it jumps in most cases 100 to 200 pips. On normal days it can move up to 50 pips, up and down

So, do you think USDJPY is more active than GBPJPY? Really?? Just check the history of GBPJPY, please….
Just look on a ADR/ATR scanner..
This can change but last couple of years it are especially GBP pairs..
GBPJPY, GBPAUD & GBPNZD
Gold volatile too and even gbpcad and gbpchf can be
That why i only trade gbp pairs on smaller timeframes though

If you dont like GBP pairs.. i think euraud and eurnzd and yen pairs are good choices

EURUSD is the most popular one! On the other hand, I see USDJPY and GBPUSD are accepted by the new and pro traders!
NZD/USD is also a very volatile currency pair so if you're looking for that you may try that pair.
I see GBP and JPY arguments in almost every thread ahah

But it was with a sideway pattern for a long time (I’m taking about 2014-15) then I lose my interest on this pair!

When it comes to setup. I'm always stuck with slow moving currency pair. I went long on AUDUSD today and was stuck with this pair whereas EURUSD and NZDUSD was running over 50 pips. Question. How do you know which pair will move more further than the others? Currency strength meter doesn't say much before the move. {image}
Mainly can be judged by expecting high impact news for each pair.
Just check the implied vola the pairs are being priced with in the option markets. That should give you a good idea of how big of a move big market players expect - especially before news

I had a similar experience. Then again, such a pattern can be pretty useful to people who scalp.

Your experience will say which are the fast-moving pairs after you trade for a period of time.
