TLDR
In this paper, a robust and interesting relationship between the real domestic price of oil and real effective exchange rates for Germany, Japan and the United States is investigated, and the authors explain why they think the real oil price captures exogenous terms-of-trade shocks and why such shocks could be the most important factor determining real exchange rates in the long run.
Abstract
The authors document a robust and interesting relationship between the real domestic price of oil and real effective exchange rates for Germany, Japan and the United States. They explain why they think the real oil price captures exogenous terms-of-trade shocks and why such shocks could be the most important factor determining real exchange rates in the long run.

The Monetary Model of Exchange Rates and Cointegration: Estimation, Testing and Prediction

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a set of tests for Cointegration using the Engle and Granger Methodology (EGM) and show that the results of these tests can be used to test the effect of non-normal disturbances on the likelihood ratio.
