Full Currency Strength Table Dashboard (8 Currencies)

# Full Currency Strength Table Dashboard (8 Currencies) 📊

This indicator provides a **simplified, visual representation of the current relative strengths of 8 major global currencies** (EUR, USD, GBP, JPY, AUD, NZD, CAD, CHF). It's designed as a minimalist dashboard that appears discreetly on your chart, giving traders a quick and clear picture of forex pair movements.

The indicator calculates the relative strength of each currency based on its movement against the other 7 currencies in the panel, providing insight into which currencies are currently the strongest and which are the weakest.

## Key Features 🌟

* **Simplified Visualization:** Instead of showing currency strength as a line on the chart, which can often be distracting, the indicator uses a **data table (dashboard)** positioned on the chart. This ensures **maximum chart visibility** and cleanliness.
* **8 Major Currencies:** All major currencies are included ($A$ - EUR, $B$ - USD, $C$ - GBP, $D$ - JPY, $E$ - AUD, $F$ - NZD, $G$ - CAD, $H$ - CHF), allowing strength calculation based on **28 base currency pairs**.
* **Strength Calculation:** Strength is calculated based on the average percentage change $\left(\frac{\text{Close} - \text{Open}}{\text{Open}} \times 100\right)$ of the currency relative to all 7 other currencies.
* **Timeframe Setting:** Users can select a **higher timeframe (TF)** (e.g., Daily - 'D') for the strength calculation. This allows analysis of longer-term currency strength momentum, independent of the chart's current timeframe.
* **Customizable Design:** You can adjust the table's position, text size, the colour of each currency, and the resolution (length) of the strength meter.

## How to Use the Indicator (Interpretation) 💡

1. **Select a Timeframe (TF):** It's recommended to use a higher TF (e.g., Daily - 'D' or 4h - '240') to get more stable currency strength signals.
2. **The Dashboard Table:** The table displays:
* The currency name (bottom, with its corresponding colour).
* The numerical strength value (top, expressed in points or average change).
* The **Strength Meter (bar)** visually represents the currency's relative strength compared to the other currencies on the panel (calculated based on the Min/Max values across all 8 currencies).
3. **Making Decisions:**
* **Buy:** Look for a currency pair where the **Base Currency** is significantly **strong** (high positive value, long meter) and the **Quote Currency** is significantly **weak** (high negative value, short meter).
* **Sell:** Look for a currency pair where the **Base Currency** is significantly **weak** and the **Quote Currency** is significantly **strong**.
* **Avoid Trading:** Avoid pairs where both currencies have roughly the same strength or are close to zero.

## Note on Calculation and Code 🛠️

* **Base Pairs:** The script calculates 28 base currency pairs (e.g., EURUSD, EURGBP... CADCHF) using the `request.security` function to retrieve data from the selected timeframe (`freq`).
* **Data Correction:** A correction was implemented in the code by adding `[1]` after `request.security` to always use the **CLOSED bar values** from the higher TF. This **eliminates NaN (Not a Number) data** that would appear when using the current bar.
* **Accumulation:** Accumulation (`sumA, sumB...`) only occurs when the selected higher TF changes (`timeframe.change(freq)`), effectively tracking the currency's relative strength during the formation of **one closed bar** on that higher TF.
