DislikedAyyaaaa... don't get news from the newspaper. Try to have NEWS FEED or Watch Bloomberg or Frequently updated Website. By the time the news is printed on the paper the market already move.
With FA you have to understand between hard fact, rumors and speculation/prediction. Like Dow theory, there will be 3 stages. Immediate effect, medium term effect, long term effect. With this I add 1 more... the beforehand effect... meaning sometimes the market already moved before the actual news release because of the prediction/speculation based on day to day economic indicators, i.e. GDP... Trade Balance... Inflation report... Unemployment data... Housing sales... CPI... etc. This is called PRICED IN.
If US economic indicators showing no sign of improvement... this will force the FED to further CUT the Interest Rate. Thus will weaken Dollar. Past weeks we all also know that UK having problem with its INFLATION REPORT meaning... BOE might be forced to CUT the IR as well. Hence, weaken the Pound Sterling. To add to the CHAOS situation... we also got news from CHINA MANplanning to move reserve to Euro. Add some more from the Middle East News... Add some more the OIL Prices... Add some more.... Add some more....
This is why the MARKET is behaving like CRAZY now. UP DOWN UP DOWN. Whichever immediate news come out will straight away affecting the market psychology. Plus we are getting near to the END of the YEAR. All tense build up caused the market to be very fragile and volatile. There are lot of "NOISES" if you are doing TA on shorter time frame. Really unpredictable. That's is why the best friend we all got right now is our MONEY MANAGEMENT. Trade wisely

QuoteDislikedSwiss Franc Rises to 12-Year High Against Dollar as Stocks Fall
By Agnes Lovasz
Nov. 19 (Bloomberg) -- The Swiss franc rose to its highest against the dollar in more than 12 years and traded near a nine- week high against the euro as a decline in global stocks prompted investors to sell higher-yielding assets bought with loans from Switzerland and Japan.
The franc has gained against all 16 most-traded currencies in the past five days as traders retreated from so-called carry trades on concern financial companies will post further losses linked to U.S. subprime mortgages. Swiss Reinsurance Co., the world's biggest reinsurer, said today it had a 1.2 billion-Swiss franc ($1.07 billion) loss on derivatives in October after the mortgage crash roiled debt markets.
``The Swiss franc is closely following the stock markets and changes in risk sentiment,'' said Elisabeth Andreew, chief currency strategy analyst at Nordea in Copenhagen. ``That's resulting in a stronger Swiss franc.''
