Hi guys,
been doing some research on fundamental analysis and understand economic indicators r the real currency movers. I take it the most important forecast tools are interest rates, trade balance and portfolio flows as part of the trade- and capital flows.
I'm trying to understand where the different economic indicators fit in, such as cpi, tic, nfp, current account, interest rate and so on for the purpose of drawing a graphic/scheme, starting with Trade/capital flows at the top. The more i got into it the more it got my confused.
Was hoping one of you could help me organize the common fx economic indicators and also find out which are mid- to long term movers and which just cause a temporary move within mid- to long term trends, for example when interest rates cause a trend can the outcome of retail sales change this trend for the longer term.
My apologies if this is all to much...
Thank you, reding
