Why are the cards labeled “Positive (USD)” or “Negative (USD)”?

The label shows which currency in the pair is being affected and how.

For example:

  • Positive (USD) → the news strengthens the U.S. dollar
  • Negative (USD) → the news weakens the U.S. dollar

Since currency pairs move relative to each other:

  • Positive (USD) → bearish pressure on EUR/USD, GBP/USD, XAU/USD, etc.
  • Negative (USD) → bullish pressure on the same pairs

This makes it easy to interpret cross-pair implications at a glance.
