to compare currencies vs not currency asset imo leads to nowhere. One has to compare to a cash asset. Gold is cash exactly then when fiat money is not accepted as payment of debt.
This can happen both in deflation and inflation.

this is the website where you can compare different currencies against gold, oil, USD index...... I find it very, very useful, and if you read Ashrafs book, you will get full benefit out of this.

forextaylor, short version to that answer is that best way to compare currencies performance and get their true strength and weakness is to do it vs a non-currency asset (such as gold). When you compare all items under a common denominator you get the better measure.

Ashraf, in your book, CTIA, you mentioned measuring golds performance against a currency being a true way to identify the currencies strength which can later be used to pair the strongest vs the weakest. Can you explain how that is done?

Thanks in advance.

@Lucky
Don't think nfp is too much manipulated....BUT is the NFP really good? I don't believe it's anywhere
close to good. It's a very dim light at the end of the tunnel, at most. To get back to pre crisis 8 million jobs which were axed since then have to be created. And how many of these jobs are temporary?
How are the new jobs being paid? Here in Europe the only well paid, not temporary new jobs are
governmental and govt hires as if there is no tomorrow. If industry hires, it is temporary and payment is lousy. I do not believe the worst is over and consequently cash ( in USD ) will be king.

with my full respect to every body those people are going to direct nfp outcome as they wish since markets are closed on monday if it is positive they can say it is possible to raise interest rate which is good for dollar and if it is negative they say recovery is not sustained which is also good for dollar and way they can play against dollar if it is positive or negative all of us are not as wise as them be careful wishing best of luck thanks happy easter in advance

I will agree with letisha on gold move up since tommorrowes NFP should be below consensus which is bearish for the dollar no matter what US is in recession even though certain monthly data may indicate growth.

Also unemploument benifits is one reason that keeps the consumption going in US and if its stopped due to republican preasure it will have a cascading effect to the US economy.

Hard to c FED increasing their disocunted window RATE and drain liquidty .Increase in oil prices too will have a negative impact to global economy .

Gold should be supported with demand due to wedding seasons and oversold enviroment on daily and weekly charts.
