The forex heatmap shows the percentage change of major currency pairs over a selected timeframe. Green cells indicate a pair that has gained in value, while red cells indicate a decline. The intensity of the color reflects the magnitude of the move.
This tool is invaluable for quickly identifying market-wide trends. If one currency shows green against all others, it's in a broad strengthening phase. If it's red across the board, it's universally weak. This big-picture view is something you can't get from looking at individual charts.
Use the heatmap at the start of your trading session to identify which currencies are moving, then drill into specific pairs for entry opportunities. Combine with the economic calendar to understand what's driving the moves.
Green means the base currency has strengthened against the quote currency (the pair has gone up). Red means it has weakened (the pair has gone down). Darker/more intense colors indicate larger percentage moves.
The colours show each pair's percentage change on the day, as reported by TradingView. They describe moves that have already happened, not a forecast.
Look for currencies that are consistently green (strong) or red (weak) across several pairs. Comparing the strongest currency with the weakest shows where the broadest move is. It describes what has already happened, so use it as a starting point for your own analysis, not as a signal.
It updates continuously during market hours. The data is indicative market data supplied by TradingView, not GCC Brokers' tradable prices.
The cross rates table shows exchange rates, the price of one currency in another. The heatmap shows how much each pair has changed over a period, coloured by direction and size, so you see strength and weakness at a glance.
Not on its own. A large move may already be priced in, spreads widen around news, and reversals can be fast. Use the heatmap to find where the market is moving, then apply your own entry, stop-loss and position size.
