lol All the time people new to fx come and write such Qs here, myself probably included at some point.

Instead of mocking the person and acting like you're a hotshot (with your 20 pip target) just answer his question? You small account trading MF!

London, May 19th. The EUR/USD dip has extended into the 1.3570s but fresh buying from a US name and a fund player has already kicked spot off the 75 lows. Trading is currently vying for fresh directionality but a rebound back into the 1.36s could be hard to push given the Cable and EUR/JPY dips. As a result, further selling is the most likely prognosis, with support tipped to trail to early European morning lows sub- 1.3550

depends on where you got in. not a bad target. 1.3571 is m3. i would wait till market open to look for additional downside or a bounce.

General answer: Market is typicly moving according to technicals, news are ussualy (unless it's something really big and shocking and even then the effect of it specificly on the chart is short lived - that is if it continues that way it means it intended do it anyway) already counted in in what you see on the chart.

Extended answer and my opinion which I think is very close to the truth:
Fundumentals only matter for long term trends - weekly...
Bravo. IMHO, playing the news in Fx is a dangerous game. Even when the news does push prices, the market returns to its previous trend when its over.

4HR chart still showing upward channel (although diff trajectory from yesterday). I got caught last night on the head-fakes that started to look like a channel down after the previous channel broke.

But, still waiting to see if we're forming a triangle or ascending triangle. Direction too uncertain to trade right now. New pot o' coffee then wait and see.....

Economics 101 (purchasing & interest rate parity 101) that news does have a significant impact on the short-term path (not included the initial news trader reaction) of real exchange rates. There isn't anything more to add.

An example of what I'm talking about. Here's a chart from Friday. Market was trending down toward the bottom of the channel when there was a flurry of news. The fx reversed during the news, but once the news was over it started right back down.

Yep:

But having said all that, I'm sure that there are traders out there that trade the news quite successfuly.

I think you're right. But they have access to information that I don't have, and play a very different and much riskier (IMHO) game than I.
