Disliked{quote} I didn't trade the event actually. I traded into it.. and couple of trades sometime after. Yeah, I traded around it. @Fader123 I think faded the spike off the event, if I remember right.Ignored
DislikedI am trying to clarify what impact on currency will have ending of quantitative easing. - It should raise a currency because it will be less money available. - It should lower GDP. - It should lower inflation (because imported goods will be cheaper). - It lowers chances for increase of interest rates. Is this correct?Ignored
DislikedI took the following GBPUSD trade base on the GBP CPI trade. It was early for me and I had just driven 13 hrs nonstop. Not a good time to trade. I didn't do much prep for this one. If I had spent more time researching in advance I would have realized that even a small difference between the expected and actual number had the potential to move the GBPUSD substantially, especially to the downside. This is because such a discrepancy to the down side could cause the BOE to pause before issuing another rate hike. I thought I had ample reasons for cutting...Ignored
DislikedNot a very good day today. I think I focused a bit too much on the sentimental analysis and got distracted.

DislikedI see we did not have bad wage data today on the GBP and AUD. AUD wage figure came in as expected I didn't see any reason for the market to interpret that as bullish. Except that last quarter's figure was revised up .1 percent (is that enough reason for the rally??). GBP on the other hand was a different case. Great jobs data all round. And wage figure beat expectation. I thought a miss would be good for trading... but let's see how it goes. Maybe a really dovish FOMC minutes might see cable break above 1.29Ignored
DislikedI have to admit though for such an important indicator (wage inflation) Carney mentioned it enough - it does not really move enough in my opinion, especially when you bear in mind how the market treats wage numbers when the NFP comes outIgnored
