1. Development background

Forex is a ratio, different from futures and the stocks. For example, if EURUSD has risen, it may be that EUR is falling and USDX has fallen even more.  I believe everyone knows that the US dollar index is an essential reference index in forex analysis.  In MT5 client, it is very valuable to see the US dollar index.

Similarly, if you can see the index of other forex in the MT5 client, which is very valuable for trading.  Because the US dollar index is very authoritative,  we can convert other Symbols of indexes according to the US dollar index.

For example:

• EURUSD = EUR: USD —> EUR_index = EURUSD * USDX.
• USDJPY = USD: JPY  —> JPY_index = USDX / USDJPY.

2. What is this

This program can generate custom symbols, each custom symbol is a forex index, such as EUR, GBP, JPY, AUD and so on.  It will be automatically detected and automatically generated.

Note: The forex index generated by this program is converted according to the US dollar index. Because the US dollar index is very authoritative, conversion through the US dollar index is also of great reference value.
