Hello DFC,

We Forex traders make a living on the market movements; usually, the more volatile the better, and most of the times this volatility and momentum is only achieved through the news releases. But it’s important to know what kind of news moves the markets the most and when to take action. If you combine this information with the open/close/lunch hours of the different markets, you may have a nice model and method to successful trade.

Each trader will have this model worked up through their experience and learning, and this discussion is outside the scope of this article, but usually there is a consensus of the most important news releases to be attentive to, as shown bellow:

Important News Releases:

- Interest Rate
- Trade Balance
- GDP
- Inflation
- Current Account
- M3 Money Supply

Of course the list is not exhaustive, but it gives a good notion of what to look for, when thinking about trading the news. But be careful, it takes time and experience to tame this wild horse

Have a nice trading day and good luck!

Cheers
