Description:

Interest Rates are closely monitored from all around the world, and play a massive role in Interbank Institutional Trading. Although mainly used by Forex traders, it's important for all types of analysts to understand risk-on and risk-off environments in respective currencies, or other asset classes, based on a global financial landscape.

The real power and value provided by this tool is its tailored Interest Rate (and GDP) Differential feature for Forex markets, based on the Interest Rate Differential concept as taught by the Inner Circle Trader (ICT).

Using Interest Rate Differentials as a further Long Term Bias factor was introduced by ICT in conjunction with other higher Timeframe principles like Seasonal Tendency, Commitment of Traders, and Open Interest. This fusion ensures a holistic approach to dissecting specific Forex pairs, and the involvement of Institutional traders.

Key Features:
  • Dynamically calculates and organizes the dashboard to display the interest rate differential of the chart's forex pair, or displays all if outside of forex markets.
  • Pinpoint historical interest rate changes with precision using vertical lines and/or dynamic labels with tooltips.


Other Features:
  • Toggle Options: Customize your viewing experience by toggling the display of previous rate changes, enabling or disabling GDP visibility, and tailoring the size and location of the dashboard.
  • Fine-tune Visuals: Adjust the size and style of the previous interest rate labels and lines to suit your preferences, offering a personalized touch to your analytical workspace.
