The Forex Fear & Greed Index measures sentiment for each major currency against the US dollar on a 0–100 scale, built from the pair's volatility, momentum, volume, and market structure. Currency sentiment often reflects broader risk appetite: fear tends to accompany flows into safe havens, while greed accompanies risk-on positioning.
