As you\u2019ve read, correlations will shift and change over time<\/strong>. So keeping on top of current coefficient strengths and direction becomes even more important.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lucky for you, currency correlations can be calculated in the comfort of your own home, just you and your most favorite spreadsheet application.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"WomanFor our explanation, we\u2019re using Microsoft Excel, but any software that utilizes a correlation formula will work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 1:<\/strong> We\u2019re assuming that you won\u2019t be magically creating the daily price data out of thin air, but rather, will be getting it somewhere online. One source is from the Federal Reserve<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2:<\/strong> Open Excel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3:<\/strong> Copy and paste your data into an empty spreadsheet or open the exported data file from Step 1. Get the last 6 months!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 4:<\/strong> Now arrange your data to look like the following or something similar. Colors and fonts are up to you! Have fun with this. Yellow might not be the best option though!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 5:<\/strong> It\u2019s time to decide on a time frame. Do you want last week\u2019s currency correlation? Last month? Last year?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The amount of price data you have will dictate this, but you can always get more data. For this example, we\u2019re using the last month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 6:<\/strong> In the first empty cell below your first comparison pair (I\u2019m correlating EUR\/USD to the other pairs, so I\u2019m starting with EUR\/USD and USD\/JPY), type: =correl(<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 7:<\/strong> Next, select the range of cells for EUR\/USD\u2019s price data, followed by a comma. You\u2019ll be surrounding this range with a box.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 8:<\/strong> After the comma, select USD\/JPY\u2019s price data range just like you did for EUR\/USD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 9:<\/strong> Click the Enter key on your keyboard to calculate the correlation coefficient for EUR\/USD and USD\/JPY.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Step 10:<\/strong> Repeat Steps 5-9 for the other pairs and for other time frames.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When you\u2019re done, you can take your new data and create a cool looking table just like this. Man, that\u2019s pro-status!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Currency<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The one-week, one-month, three-month, six-month, and one-year trailing periods provide the most complete view of the correlations between currency pairs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But it\u2019s up to you to decide which or how many time periods you want to wish to analyze.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While it might be overkill to update your numbers every single day, unless you\u2019re a currency correlation addict, updating them at least every other week should be enough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you find yourself manually updating your currency correlation tables every hour on Excel, you might need to get out more and pick up a hobby.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
