Wednesday, November 25th, 2009

My last shared trade turned out to be losing one. Oh well, such things happen in Forex trading. But, anyway, today I’d like to share another trade with you. It’s a pull-back trade on USD/JPY, which is based mostly on fundamental analysis. In my opinion (confirmed by the pull-back…

Technical or Fundamental Analysis — Which to Use?

Monday, July 13th, 2009

From my own experience, the majority of the Forex traders prefer technical analysis over fundamental. The reasons are quite obvious — only macroeconomical fundamental indicators affect currency prices and there are not many of those available. The stock market has many fundamental parameters for…

Weak fundamentals will probably make Fed to cut the interest rate one more time by the end of the year. At least the dollar’s bearish movement on Forex today indicate that. EUR/USD reached its peak above the yesterday’s high and posted the first positive result in three days.…
