Measuring Currency Volatility
All forex market participants recognize that currencies tend to fluctuate within trading ranges rather than moving smoothly from one level to another over time. Moreover, different currencies exhibit differing degrees of volatility. As a result, as well as their point forecasts for individual currencies, this month we also asked our panellists for their predictions of the likely ranges within which they expect a number of currencies to trade over the coming year. More precisely, our panellists are asked to provide their estimates of the quarterly ranges within which a number of major currencies are likely to trade over the next five quarters.
The charts above represent a small portion of this special survey taken from our January 2022 issue of Foreign Exchange Consensus Forecasts.
