Quoting Samson85
{quote} If you scroll up you will see the trade I made on Friday. I caught the event just about half way through. When it reached top and done its mini pull back like it always does I bought more as I knew i Could get 25 pips fro it which I did!! I suggest using CMC Markets as they release the news data on the screen immediately and tell you whether its positive or negative. {image}
Thanks, Samson85.

So, you enter your trade as soon as you hear the news, that is one or two minutes after, right?. You buy or sell a market order. But what is your stop loss? is it fix for example 20 pips or 80 pips? What is your tp? is it fix or you trail it?

Thanks

You can trade it as soon as you see it. You can see it instantly on a few websites or broker platforms.

You can trade it once the event has happpned 1 minute after as it usually spikes up an extra 25-50 pips. You can also short it the following the day as spikes do not always hold their levels, but it depends on what the fundemental is.
