Hello. As the title implies, I would like to discuss news as well as various other markets that may help us all make better and more informed forex trades.
There are few good books on the subject of intermarket analysis. One I have in hardcopy is "Currency Trading and Intermarket analysis" by Ashraf Laidi, it is excellent.
I'd like to start the talk on the correlation between usd/jpy and the ten year treasury note future. In the attached, I am using the continuous contract. Heard about the strong inverse correlation on cnbc and decided to see for myself. I believe they meant daily correlation, but it looks to hold up well on 1 hr too. This is using a demo Broco MT acct. I suggest you get one, one of the few MT brokers that give out free futures data.
I've uploaded the pocketbook of economic indicators for your reference.
Update 4/15/12: Uploaded excel 2010 websheet with weekly data. Ultimate aim is to record data to this spreadsheet each week, load the values into mysql then write reports over time that will form a powerful fundamental record, free too all .. published to FF.
Use: Each week copy the current data to a new sheet and refresh the web query it should post the updated values from the forexpros website. Their calendar is more complete than FF.
