Hey Folks:

We've got several high impact releases for this week, including the U.S. Retail Sales and CPI release, among others... In short, this is going to be a very exciting week for News Trading.

Because we are going to face several releases that could possibly change the short term market trend, I'd suggest to always plan your position witht this schedule in mind, as the Forex market is generally a speculator's market.

Here's list:

1. Tue February 15, 2011 - 4:30am EST - UK CPI y/y
Historical Chart & Data

2. Tue February 15, 2011 - 8:30am EST - US Core Retail Sales
Historical Chart & Data

3. Thu February 17, 2011 - 8:30am EST - US Core CPI
Historical Chart & Data

4. Fri February 18, 2011 - 4:30am EST - UK Retail Sales
Historical Chart & Data

5. Fri February 18, 2011 - 7:00am EST - CA Core CPI
Historical Chart & Data

We'll skip U.S. FOMC Meeting Minutes on Wednesday, since I don't really expect to see strong persisting market reaction...

Also make sure you keep an eye out for Tuesday's European GDP releases... They may be market moving, but since there are so many of them, I'd just stay out of the market to be safe.

Thanks,

Thanks Henry !

Folks,

I've put together a Google Calendar of Henry's tradable news releases which you can add to your iPhone or your own Google Calendar. This gives you the following:
  1. Translates the time into your local timezone
  2. Allows you to see your personal appointments alongside when the news releases are happening
  3. And if you have a Google Calendar account - notifications to your mobile phone via SMS (for free!)

Instructions (you only need to add this once and it will appear every week)

Adding to iPhone:
  1. Send an e-mail to your iPhone with the e-mail body of "webcal://www.google.com/calendar/ical/06nlopqpjr7nnehhgc99igak6k%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics" (without the quotes and remove the extra space before the '.com')
  2. On your iPhone, open the e-mail and click on the link.
  3. When prompted "Subscribe to the calendar: 'Henry Liu's Trading Signals'?", click "Subscribe".
  4. Open your calendar and it will say "The Calendar 'Henry Liu's Trading Signals' has been added"
  5. Click "Done".


Adding to your own Google Calendar and setting SMS notification (see accompanying screenshots attached):
  1. Log into your Google calendar and go to "Other Calendars"
  2. Type in "06nlopqpjr7nnehhgc99igak6k@group.calendar.google.com" (without the quotes and the .com should be one word - you'll need to remove the space)
  3. Now click on the drop-down for your newly added calendar "Henry Liu's Trading Signals". Click on "Calendar settings"
  4. Click on the tab "Notifications". Fill in the reminders you'd like - E-mail, SMS and Pop-up.

If you don't see "SMS" as a drop-down option, you need to configure the settings for your mobile phone in Google. Go to your "Settings" (top right) and choose "Mobile Setup" or check Google Calendar Help.

I update this based on news listed in the FPA calendar and then update every week shortly after Henry releases his weekly review, so you should only need to add the calendar once and from there on you'll get reminders every week to help you trade :)

Hope this helps,

Huwee.
