Forex Buy & Sell Trading Signals

Considering the pip range, I never trade EURCHF and EURGBP, they might be profitable though. I’d rather trade yen pairs such as CHFJPY, AUDJPY.

How about signal for EUR/CAD?.. :slight_smile:

The EUR/USD pair fell hard during the session on Friday as Spanish bond yields spiked yet again. The cost of insuring those bonds is also rising, and as a result people are dumping the Euro.
However, the 1.30 level just below is massive support, and we need to see it broken on the downside with a daily close under it in order to sell at this point.

Hi FM,
There are ample of trading opportunities & making profits with your signals but in between I come across a couple of times, news releases which makes me a bit nervous to continue or put a trade. Can you please advise on some best principles on how to trade news releases. This happened today in the case of GBP news release which caused a lot of Market movement but I could not take up those trades. More over my broker is AvaFX who is a market maker. I have read a lot of articles that when we trade during news release spreads widen & too much slippage is there & I shall not be able to enter trade with exact pricing & some brokers do manipulate pricing,
Please guide me on this,

Regards,
Krishna

So many times, if you are subscribed to FxStreet and Bloomberg news, you will see the line “Despite the … pair moved in the opposite direction”,…Maybe FMM could point us to what FX Calendar he uses and in what way in order to best suit his method?!

thx!

Hi Krishna,

Having an account with brokers as market makers who widen the spread too much during news releases makes trading at that time too difficult especially that some keep spreads too wide for few minutes after news release so the whole story would have finished by time they return spreads to normal while others(Good Brokers with no price manipulation at time of news release ) will little bit widen spreads few seconds before and after news releases. Here you can trade news releases in a good way without being effected by wide spreads.

Particularly as example of UK news releases, Thomson Reuters clients receive numbers around 2 minutes earlier, so you realize sometimes that before actual time of certain news releases market price started to move in good pips.
As a brief to how to trade news releases is Good numbers feed or program…, trade the retracement of the first spike as after market react to the news release number, by that short time whatever your reader of news is to know the news release number if Bloomberg or CNBC or Fxstreet or any reputabe forex sites or you’re a Thomson Reuters or other company client, you quickly match my and actual market numbers then after the first spike, price will retrace some good pips, there is when to enter a trade.
Besides, it’s necessary for such method to have resistance and support lines drawn as my daily analysis retracement & TP targets and short signals(for majors) so you know where market price might stop advancing or retreating and if price base above first line then where it is going but possibly to next line or target…

Try to trade such news releases at your broker demo account to have a feeling and experience in such situation and only after that you might be able to start trading live in such market conditions…
Also, you must be sure at first that you can trade news releases with your broker(if widens spreads too much and for what period of time after numbers come out).
If you see the news release trading too difficult then simply to not trade it, wait for market reaction of such releases and trade accordingly afterwards relying on my Daily Signals & Analysis.

Best Luck

Hi Konan,

What do you mean by “moved in opposite direction” ? About FX Calender I use, you can find the FX Calender for a full month and quarter at any Good Forex Website or even broker, it’s no secret but available for all Traders.

About the method, Read the above post of reply to Krishna…

*** Remember Traders that tomorrow will be last day to leave a comment about what pairs from the 12 current forex pairs you see as not mostly traded(to be removed) and what new pairs as replacement you’ll like to have as daily analysis…

Good Luck to all

Hai FMM,

In my opinion we can remove EUR/CHF and EUR/GBP. Because First mentioned pair is a dead pair manipulated by SNB and the later one has a very tight daily movement.

My opinions is we can remove those two from our list and add EUR/AUD and CAD/JPY or EUR/CAD and AUD/JPY.

Salim

Just one example of such contradictions in this market was yesterday under the title “Aud/Usd up despite Leading Index” by FxStreet.com…Too many of those “despite the news” news , lol. And, in “opposite direction”, ofcourse, means in other direction then expected, long instead of short or vice versa.
This is also why I asked you, in a way, do you heed news when trading and in which extent.

Thank you sir for your patience, have a good trading day!

Hi FMM,

you can remove EUR/CHF and EUR/GBP.
I would try EUR/JPY.

Traderharry

Hi FMM,

I’m actually happy with how it is.

Thanks and take care,

Canialegui

Well, I understand that…lol but going too deep into why this pair/currency or that moved in this way not that due to a certain crucial news release will leave you with lot of headache because nobody can guarantee that this pair or currency will power or weaken since the news number came out as good or bad as expected or not because other factors can influence pair direction and currency strength too.
Not all traders read the news numbers the same way, even if before the news release it can be said that this number is good to buy while other is to sell but at news release time everything can change as the reading can be manipulated like “number is good but it may effect on the other hand growth or inflation…”
You understand the idea Konan.
And, never underestimate the correlation formula that can highly effect too as when Euro/Usd is falling, it will surely effect Gbp/Usd movement as correcting itself to fall if not as Euro/Usd but to some good degree to keep on correlating correctly.
Certainly, there are exceptions(this is why Euro/Gbp moves higher or lower) but sooner or later one of both must correct it self back to the equation…
Fundamentals are with no doubt very important in trading and any trader must keep focus at but never addict to it only or think that it’s the only way to trading right because when fundamentals look contradicting then technically there’s something going on, so both walk together…

Have A Great Trading Day & An Entertaining Weekend

Hi FMM,
This is a great thread that I feel proud of really but unfortunately this Week is surely bad week for traders like Me. I stared at my PC atleast for 2 Hours after the news releases on Thursday & Friday afternoon my local time without gaining a single PIP. This week there was not a single trend in any currency pair I observed. Only trend was after the news release on Tuesday & wednesday. What could be reason for this unusual price action behavior of the Forex market. Let us hope that we compensate for the pip gain from next week.
Regarding new pairs please give provide signals for CHF/JPY & AUD/JPY instead of EUR/GBP & EUR/CHF which are dead pairs according to me as well,

Thanks & Regards,
Krishna

We are all proud of this thread. Actually, Personally I am very proud of myself at first…lol

You seem to be very concerned of trading news releases which is not a big positiveness because it consists of big risk as well.
There was no clear trend movement last week as many weeks before but I believe that yen pairs had beautiful downward movements for nice amount of pips gain besides some nice movements by other pairs from time to time but mainly market is in consolidation which is not best trading opportunity for strategies like ours that depend on smooth market movement but maybe for traders who prefer sideways movements to scalp some pips at up and down movements with no clear direction.

Good Luck Krishna
