Hi there :)

This is Crazy Cat, with the review of the week.

This week, we were watching 5 economic indicators. 2 of them hit the triggers that I sent to you. Let's review...

1. Friday, March 19th (07:00 am New York Time) CANADA

I said if Canadian CPI m/m comes out at 0.6 or higher, USD/CAD will probably go down by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.

It actually came out at 0.7 and the other numbers were also deviating in the same direction. USD/CAD went down by 70 pips! Amazing. Well, it was a huge deviation and to me a huge surprise because normally we don't see such deviations. If someone set up an autoclick software on this report, and got a fill, it was a big gain for sure. Unfortunately I was too lazy to set up my autoclick software for this as I did not believe we would get such big deviation.

If you were lucky enough to make money on this one, well - congratulations and good job!

Please see for yourself what happened on this chart:

2. Friday, March 19th (08:30 am New York Time) CANADA

I wrote if Canadian Core Retail Sales m/m comes out at 1.2 or higher, USD/CAD will probably go down by 30 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. It actually came out at 1.8 but USD/CAD moved exactly 30 pips. Good thing it moved at all but given the size of deviation it was not an impressive move so to speak. If you grabbed a few pips, congratulations. I myself skipped this one as well.

Here is the chart showing what happened:

Anyway, have a good Sunday!

Crazycat, once again: why didn't you trade claimant count change on Wednesday? It moved 100 pips!!! This was really impressive. Despite the fact it was very huge move this time, it wasn't just an accident, this report normally makes around 30 pips if numbers align. Why don't you ever mentioned it?
 
What is "autoclick"

Crazy Cat,

You mentioned Autoclick Is it and EA you have?

I've built an EA to trade the news based on FFCal news indicator, but it still has a couple bugs to work out.

Thanks.

Hey there,

I am a member of your esteemed web services.

I have a nagging question which remains unanswered by many professionals dealing in the stock,forex,commoditiy and futures markets.

Basically to do with the whole gamut of internet or online trading.

I trade the select stocks on my screen,with a market filter,i.e which clearly inform to me which stock is being sold more and which is being brough more.



Inspite of being transparent in this dealing/trade which goes on in the live market,I find to my surprise and shock,that inspite of no selling pressure reflected by selling voulmes,the leading and lagging indicators,the stock price suddenly starts falling till a significant difference is present,enough to cause much damage to my funds

or anyone trading esp.the derivatives.



What can be the possible explanation for such sudden fall inspite of rising volumes or volumes remaining constant and not a major sell-off?



This fact challenges the very basic system,which we are operating online,which compels us to think of factors influencing the electronic markets beyond the scope of buyers and sellers!

(interest-rates,economic factors, and news,etc primarily affect the sellers/buyers who act/effect a change in the stock prices!,but without a major trigger,what is the cause of sudden fall or risein in prices of select scrips?)



Can someone from your expert ise offer some solutions,advice,suggestions?

Pl.inform...



Thanks,

not EA but autoclick software. Without instant news feed you cannot capture spikes... but of course you can try afterspike strategies.

I did not trade it in the past, I will look at this indicator. The market is changing all the time, what did not work in the past may start working now, and what worked so far may not work anymore.

That's true that it's changing. I recommend to have a better look at this report and to include it next month. Claimant Count Change usually makes around 30 pips when the reports do not conflict. This time it was amazing 100 pips.
