How to?
Major news releases could be a strong driving force
and has direct effect on forex trading. This is the main reason why
news trading is turning to be a prevalent trading technique in the
forex market. In fact, some news result to currency pairs to move up to
100 pips in minutes or even seconds. Taking advantage of these changes
in the currency trading would largely depend on the preparedness of the
trader in trading news.
News trading could be a useful tool to
the trader. To others, this is all they need to do trading business.
For breakout traders, economic news could be a good forex trading
opportunity because it usually prompts strong short term moves in the
forex market. Since news reports on the worldwide economy are a 24 hour
thing, opportunities to catch a volatile market is limitless.
When
on the look out for economic news releases, professional traders would
advise to focus on the currencies of countries such as United States
dollars, European Union's euros, Japan's yen, New Zealand's dollar,
Great Britain's pound, Switzerland's francs, Australia's dollars and
Canada's dollars. These countries are preferred because of the size of
their economies , their currency's trading liquidity and the frequency
of the news released about them.
The above mentioned countries
alone already means up to ten news releases per day. A trader need not
study all ten. He just needs to pick some which he thinks would result
to the best pip movement. One thing good about news trading is that it
is scheduled in advance thereby giving the trader time to do his own
forex trading.
