Tony,
Question-
If we get lucky on the Funds Rate announcement coming up in a few minutes- Should we get out before the Press Conference, which happens 30 minutes later? Or should we wait it out for the 120 pip TP?
Thanks

I'm in profit with GBPUSD from the news about an hour ago.

I have already closed in profit, if I were you I would keep it open as US news will likely push this lower in my opinion. I plan on trading US news since I already closed UK news.

I've got my SL om Break even. I'm going to leave it alone and hope the SL holds if it's turns out to be a major move.

I'm letting it run- thanks for your help.

Will the upcoming CAD Governor's remarks be released as text and move immediately, or is it one that will have to be monitored?

Thank you again.

I am not sure about that one. I'm not the best gauge on the cad. I like the way it moves when it goes though. The remarks may be a non event.....I just can't say for sure.

Just looked it up.
The speech is released to some news reporters about an hour early. They are quarantined until 12:55 ET. Any move in the CAD will be immediate.

I just saw this.
No US Manufacturing PMI?

Which news do you recommend for the rest of the week?
Thanks

Another question- Is the FOMC one that has to be observed or will it move the market instantly?

Happy New Year to all.

I'm waiting for NFP - looking to go long on the dollar.

FOMC can be quite volatile initially.

Sorry for the late reply. Usually FOMC can be observed.... since it's a meeting. Go with the flow with a tight SL for next time.


US Manuf... normally not worth it. Wait for NFP and Crude oil inventories this week.

Thanks for the info. I was going to try the ADP NFP this morning and it was a whipsaw mess. You saved me some money. I have noticed the UDS/JPY has out preformed the EUR/USD for USD news. Would you use it for the NFP tomorrow?

Also, tomorrow there is CAD news same time as the NFP. If I try to trade it which pair should I use? CAD/JPY? GBP/CAD? I don't want the whipsaw that USD/CAD might generate during NFP.

I'll really appreciate your advice.
Thank you.

You could try cad/jpy, usd/jpy. I don't recommend gbp/cad because of slippage and high spread. With usd/cad you could also hit the jackpot sometimes.

I will put 2 trades USD/CAD and CAD/JPY
