> /how_to_use

> Correlation measures how two currency pairs move relative to each other.

> Positive (>70%) — pairs move in same direction. Avoid doubling exposure.

> Negative (<−70%) — pairs move opposite. Useful for hedging.

> Near 0 — no relationship. Good for diversification.

> Based on 1H price returns (not raw prices) over 60 periods.

> Example: EUR/USD & GBP/USD strongly correlated → buying both = same bet.

> NFA — correlations change over time. Always check current values.
