How does the US dollar trade against the Guatemalan quetzal historically?

The Guatemalan quetzal has a history of instability due to high poverty levels in Guatemala. Until 1987, the quetzal was pegged to and domestically equal to the US dollar. Fluctuations in the US economy were mirrored in the value of the GTQ. In 1987, the GTQ cut ties with the USD, and since that time, the stability of the Guatemalan economy has steadily increased with government subsidized exports.

As a result, the GTQ is projected to continue rising, but the USD still holds significant strength against the quetzal.

What affects USD > GTQ exchange rates?

Factors that affect how any currency trades against another are sociopolitical atmosphere, prices and inflation rates, foreign trade and monetary policy and export-to-import price ratios.Less aggressive factors are consumer confidence about the economy and economic growth, the strength of other currencies, investor speculation and day-to-day news about natural disasters, elections and new government policies.

If you want to predict where the currencies are headed, consider this fact: The value of a currency is heavily related to the strength of its country’s economy.
