The market overview lets you quickly compare price movements on different timescales.
The overview shows three gauges, for the price movement during the last 60 minutes, 24 hours, and 5 days.
Each gauge shows the current price in relation to the high-low range (with prices). A gauge which is
mostly blue means that the current price is towards the top end of the range; orange means that the price
is towards the lower end of the range. The inner bar then shows the open price for the period, and the
corresponding % change.
Below the gauges are three simple candle charts, letting you compare short-term market activity on
the M5, M15 and H1 timeframes.
The GBPUSD currency pair is one of the largest and most commonly traded currency crosses on the forex market.
The pair is often referred to as the "cable," in reference to the transatlantic telegraph wires connecting London and
New York. The GBPUSD represents almost 15% of the total daily volume of transactions in forex. With such a
formidable volume, GBP/USD is a definitive benchmark by which exchange rate valuations are measured globally.
The pair represents two economies: British and American. After the result of the Brexit referendum, this pair has been
suffering some turbulence due to risk related with the abandonment process from the European Union. The GBPUSD
belongs to the group of 'Majors', which stands for the most important pairs in the world. Other currency pairs in this
group are: EUR/USD, USD/JPY, AUD/USD, USD/CHF, NZD/USD and USD/CAD.
