Hey. Thank you for that information. I am still confused because to me it seems to be the same thing but just in different views. THis quote from that piece says for a fundamental analysis

"looking at the things like GDP growth rates, interest rate policy, government spending, inflation, consumer action, and many other factors. The idea is to develop an expectation of where the economy and/or interest rates and other elements are heading in order to extrapolate a direction for the market."

Wouldnt the expectation of the FED to increase interest rates make the dollar strong? So this woould make a bullish market? I am not talking about making a trade right before a report, trying to make a quick profit from the deviation of the expected and realized but more of the overall trend? Sorry if I do not make any sense but I hope you can see what I am trying to say/ask.
Anyway, thank you for your response and helpfulness. Reps to ya.


Adam
