Each currency against the one picked above (the US dollar unless you change it): green means it gained on it. That currency has no tile of its own. Tile size is average daily trading turnover (BIS, 2025).

About the Forex Heatmap
The forex heatmap shows the world's currencies on one map, grouped into the majors, Europe, Asia-Pacific, the Americas, and the Middle East and Africa. Every currency is measured against the US dollar: a green tile gained on the dollar over the selected period, a red tile lost ground. The map can also be measured against the euro, the pound, the yen or the yuan instead.
Tile size is each currency's average daily turnover in the foreign exchange market, from the Bank for International Settlements' 2025 Triennial Survey. The euro, yen and pound dominate the map because, after the dollar, they dominate trading. Currencies with a hard peg to the dollar, such as the UAE dirham and the Saudi riyal, are left out because they never move.

Forex Heatmap FAQ
How do I read the forex heatmap?
Each tile is one currency. Its color is the change in the currency's value against the US dollar over the selected period: green means the currency strengthened, red means it weakened. The price on the tile is what one unit of the currency costs in US dollars, and the tile's area is how much of the currency is traded per day.
Why is there no US dollar tile?
Every currency on the map is measured against the dollar, so the dollar has no move of its own to show: a dollar always costs one dollar. Read the dollar from the map as a whole. When most tiles are red, the dollar is rising across the board; when most are green, it is falling.
Can I see currencies against the euro, pound, yen or yuan?
Yes. Pick EUR, GBP, JPY or CNY next to the period buttons and every tile is measured against that currency instead: prices are quoted in it and colors show the move against it. The currency you pick leaves the map, and the US dollar appears as a tile of its own.
Which currencies are included?
More than 100: the G10 majors, every European and Asian currency with a live quote, Latin American and Caribbean currencies, and Middle Eastern and African currencies. Hard dollar pegs are excluded.
When does the forex heatmap update?
The currency market is open 24 hours a day from Sunday evening to Friday evening US time, and prices refresh every minute. Thinly traded currencies are quoted less often, so their tiles can lag the majors.
