Not unless one is trading long term, my dear JammerJams, then we trade on a fundamental basis with technicals used to support our entry and exit points, obviously employing extremely low levels of leverage.

Even as a short term trader, one should always understand how the major news stories, and movements in commodities, equities, bonds and other currency pairs impact the pair you are trading. It is important to have a solid understanding of the macro-economic fundamentals and the current correlations of different assets in order to become a more...

Hi Vourvoul,

It was on Mon 19th Jan, where Cable dropped by a 1,000 pips in 2 trading sessions.
Thanks gammase, I have to admit it was a trick question. I was hoping you'd say the 20th when the daily H&S neckline broke to demonstrate that the fall was expected by the Technical Analysis...

I'll get you next time... lol

Well, hopefully I can continue to benefit from the great tech analysis you post on here and you can get the same from some of my posts concerning the fundamentals.

Cheers

I agree with nAvin...for me..trying to trade with fundamentals is difficult and leaves for question interpretion.

this approach requires a clear understanding of macro and even micro economics..and their interdependency.

A rather daunting requirement.
I feel that both approaches are good..in the right hands...

drop may be coming now...only time will tell..but I see a nice resistence holding
I see a nice spike..and if we sit here for the 1 hour period..we should see the movement downward...

careful with placing longs right now..
she is relentless, vicious, unforgiving... and she is supported by 6MA on the M15...

those still short from the 1.42xx should consider cutting loss when she comes back down to the 6MA... angle of upward trajectory looks very bullish

Yes, but all that was needed to trade that short was a simple trendline. I don't disagree that knowing the fundamentals makes you a more complete trader, but I must also say that you don't need to know the first thing about them in order to trade successfully. That said, I DO wish I knew more, but only from a trivia standpoint.
There's always money in the banana stand.
she reach 1.4412 pivot before heading back down

monthly very small body and weekly suggest a close higher than sunday open..1.48 after we get a close on dailly above 1.44 would b a start

I see what you are saying, but there was a 500 pip drop on the Monday before the major support was taken out on the Tuesday morning...

To be a truly successful trader (which I am not...yet ;-)!!), a knowledge of fundamentals, in addition to the technicals, is absolutely essential. At the very least it provides one with clarity at times when the technicals are cloudy. It certainly offers far greater benefits than just a party trick, or a bit of useful trivia.

Don't get me wrong, I love the use of technicals, which allow one to trade more robot-like, with less danger of emotions or confirmation bias slipping into your thought process.
