[QUOTE="TTSMarkets, post: 183668, member: 67936"] When it comes to forex markets, there’s one factor that trumps anything else. Many people may think economic indicators can greatly move markets. Of course, you’ll often see stories about wages, prices, etc. making a big impact. Interest rates, however, play a major role in these market movements. Looking at it, a job report may have a big impact on FX currency pairs. But it has such an impact because of how the report can influence interest rates. Central bankers meet almost once a month (depends on schedule from one central bank to another). The central bank’s monetary policymaking staff assesses the economy at such meetings. Assessment requires wages, labor market, GDP growth, etc. As you can see, these economic indicators tend to influence decision-making. Thus, while economic indicators might seem to have a big impact in one way, the reason behind this impact is how they can shift interest rate expectations. [/QUOTE]
