This is a great example of how the heatmap can improve your trading and help you make more money.

On the left of the chart you can see the CHF (Swiss Franc) is stronger than the Euro and Pound and weaker than the JPY. Once it breaks out around 3:30am EST it becomes a lot stronger than the other currencies. The bottom fields show the impact of the US Dollar on the USD/CHF. Whenever you see all green or red you often get strong trends. The darker the color the stronger the currencies are and trading in that direction on a pullback is a safe, high probability strategy.

You can see around 7am EST the Swiss Franc started to weaken against the Euro and Pound and gave you early warning to exit your longs and possibly look for shorts. The R2 pivot point along with our hourly statistical high and trend reversal signal was the perfect short. Once in the trade you can see the US Dollar became weak as well, dark red against all other currencies and you had the potential to catch 70 pips. The market fell right to the daily pivot which usually stalls or stops a move.
