Trading the Forex news is a popular strategy among currency traders. The secret is to analyse the news events before they are released. This will allow you to first determine the direction that you think the markets will move, should the news match expectations. The next step is to use some basic technical analysis in order to identify a point to enter your trade. You also need to work out some levels where you are going to place your stops. As markets often move strongly following the release of news, if is important that you don’t bank and your analysis being correct and provision for a strong move against your prior analysis. In order to safeguard yourself you need to make sure that any stops that you place are not so big, that you take a big loss on your trading capital if you call the market movement incorrectly. However as markets can prove quite volatile at these times you risk being stopped out if you place trades too close to the current market price.
