Frequently Asked Questions
How do I read the forex heatmap?
The heatmap shows currency pairs color-coded by performance. Green cells indicate a currency is strengthening against its pair, while red cells indicate weakening. The deeper the color, the stronger the move. By scanning rows and columns, you can quickly identify which currencies are broadly strong or weak across all pairs. For example, if the USD row is mostly green, the US dollar is strengthening against most currencies.
Why is the forex heatmap useful for Indian investors?
Even if you do not trade forex directly, currency movements affect your investments. A weakening rupee impacts the cost of imported goods, oil prices, and returns on international ETFs. The heatmap helps you understand global currency dynamics at a glance — whether the dollar is strengthening broadly, whether emerging market currencies are under pressure, or whether the rupee is moving in line with its peers.
