Prices from public market feeds, indicative. Statistics, not advice.
How is the score calculated?
For each currency we take the pairs it is part of and measure the price change of the latest candle of the chosen timeframe. That change is compared with the average candle size of the last 20 candles of the same pair and turned into a score, with the sign flipped when the currency is the second one in the pair. The currency's score is the average of its pair scores.
How to read the meter in 20 seconds
Each row is one coin. A positive score means the coin gained against the US dollar over the timeframe you pick, compared with its own usual movement; a negative score means it lost.
Coins are measured against the dollar (Bitcoin and Ethereum also against each other), so crypto scores are larger and more jumpy than forex scores. Do not compare a crypto score with a forex score.
Not sure what you are looking at?
- Pick one timeframe. Choose the tab that matches the chart you look at (5 minutes to 1 day) and read only that tab.
- Compare the top and the bottom. The strongest and weakest currencies on that tab show the widest gap between two currencies.
- Check another timeframe. Open one longer tab. If both tabs agree, the picture is consistent; if they disagree, that is useful to know too.

Questions people ask
What is a crypto strength meter?
It ranks large cryptocurrencies from strongest to weakest by how much each one moved against the US dollar over the timeframe you pick, compared with its own usual movement.
Which coins does it show?
Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Cardano (ADA), BNB, XRP and Avalanche (AVAX). Use the coin buttons to hide or show coins; at least two stay selected.
How are the crypto scores calculated?
The same way as the forex scores: the price change of the latest candle is compared with the average size of the last 20 candles of that market, and turned into a score. Each coin is measured against the dollar; Bitcoin and Ethereum are also measured against each other.
Why are crypto scores bigger than forex scores?
Each coin is scored from one or two markets, while a forex currency is scored from many pairs and the averaging smooths them out. Crypto scores are therefore larger and jumpier. Do not compare a crypto score with a forex score.
Is Bitcoin gaining or losing strength against the dollar?
Look at BTC on the timeframe you use: a positive score means it gained against the dollar over that period, a negative score means it lost. A different timeframe can show the opposite.
Is this financial advice?
No. The meter shows statistics about recent price changes. It does not predict prices and is not a recommendation to buy or sell. Cryptocurrency prices can fall quickly and you can lose money.
General information only. Currency strength figures are statistics calculated from recent price changes from public market feeds. They are not investment advice and not a recommendation to buy or sell, they do not predict future prices, and trading currencies or cryptocurrencies carries a risk of loss.
