Early US session we see USD ISM Manufacturing PMI. We set reasonably wide triggers for this event as reactions are usually quite small. We only want to trade if there is a large divergence and even then we will look...

The first reading of USD GDP QoQ is released pre US session. This is the most volatile of the USD GDP readings and we expect a spike of around 30 pips if a trade is triggered. This event doesn't always...

Last month's event came just short of triggering our parameters. USD/JPY had a solid spike down with lots of time to exit before reversing. This would have been a good trade. We're keeping the parameters the same this month. If...

Date: Wednesday 14th March 2018 Time: 12:30 UTC This month we’re paying more attention to USD Retail Sales MoM because it’s the most important figure released at this time (often it’s released with USD CPI).
