KEY ANNOUNCEMENTS
There are certain Fundamental Announcements that are much more
likely to result in strong movements. If there is uncertainty (good
for your trading) about what the announcement will be then there
will be an immediate and sometimes drastic effect on the currency
market (more drastic news = more drastic price move).
The most important to watch for are Unemployment Reports, and
Interest Rates. Also high on the list to look for are Consumer Price
Index (CPI), Inflation, and Gross Domestic Product (GDP). Less
important (meaning less likely to result in the big) but still worth
keeping an eye on include M2 (Money Supply), Treasury Budget,
Producer Price Index (PPI), Retail Sales, and International Trade.
Be sure to look for the above in your weekly Fundamental
Announcement calendars and plan accordingly to attempt to trade
them.
