|Clear drivers and leaders to Currency markets over the past 4 ish weeks are USD Vs Non currency pairs. Non USD currency pairs are EUR/USD, GBP/USD, NZD/USD and AUD/USD Vs USD/CAD, USD/CHF and USD/JPY. Non USD currency pairs all trade above respective MA's while USD pairs trade below.
The Non USD Vs USD lineup is correct. The correct lineup and sufficient ranges is what drove trades over the past month as clear long and short points were identified. Trades in USD Vs Non USD was the only trades of any profit value and the same situation exists in the current week. The same circumstance may exists for many weeks to come.
The non drivers and non leaders to Currency markets over the past 4 ish weeks are currency cross pairs in the universe of USD vs Non USD.
Viewed from EUR top and NZD bottom currency pairs, its obvious why cross pairs aren't moving nor trading correctly and its due to cross pair mis positions.

NZD/JPY trades above 69.56 by 2 pips.

NZD/CAD trades below.
2 pairs trade above and 2 pairs trade below. This situation is clearly enough to compress ranges.
NZD/CHF for example is a dead issue to ranges due to its position between NZD/CAD and NZD/JPY. NZD/CAD's correct position is above all NZD pairs and should be the first currency pair shown. NZD/CAD as first position and top currency pair drives the NZD universe. NZD/CHF's correct position is bottom pair. When NZD/CHF assumes its correct position as bottom pair then it trades correctly and in its proper ranges. NZD/JPY lacks a clue to direction as it can easily fly either way. NZD/USD exits as the only clear trade.
