CAD economic news

Its too bad that CAD economic news coincide with USD news. Otherwise, that could be another source of income/profit. CAD economic news are as violent as USD news releases.... Anyone trading CAD news here? please share your experience.

thanks!

Personally I don't trade CAD news when they coincide with US data (except when CAD news is much more important that US news) , because often a news "cancel" other and there is little price reaction with high reversal risk.

When Cad news come alone (e.g at 11.15 GMT) I trade it because often they move by a large amount of pips, and reversal risk is quite low, can I say that CAD news are my fovourite.
I have to notice that CAD news sometimes they come out 1 minute before.

If they coincide I trade the crosses, for example the jobs data comes out at 7AM for the CAD and 8:30 for the USD the same day. Typically I will trade the EUR/CAD or CAD/JPY for the CAD jobs. Don't like to trade the USD/CAD after CAD jobs and before NFP.

I notice that thr CADJPY move alot on Canadian news. May be a good alternative to USDCAD -- though the spread is a bit more.
