Learn to Trade The News

This video details the different types of broker model which you can choose from. It covers the importance of choosing the right one and a suggestion of our preferred broker to make your choice simpler.

Here you will learn how to open both your trading account and online account and be given a brief intro into the powerful resources you will go on to use. Your account is a key element of the course so it ideal to get this sorted out before heading into the meat of the course.

Following on from the previous video you will find here a PDF document containing the 3 key steps you need to follow in order to open your trading account. Your account is a key element of the course so it is ideal to get this sorted out before heading into the meat of the course.

In this section you will learn what an economic news release is and when they occur. You will also learn about the importance/relevance of central banks and who are the key ones to get to know.

Here you will learn about the effect of news on the currency markets and how we can replicate the trading approach of the large institutional traders (who trade this very news). The powerful nature of news based trading is hit home by using several recent examples illustrating just how quick and large the moves can be as a direct result of an economic news event.

Not every economic news item which comes out is tradeable. Instead we focus on those news items which have the potential to create the largest moves to give us the greatest profit potential. In this video, we identify the 8 key news items which are likely to have the greatest impact on a nation's economy and as such the nations currency. Here you will learn what news items to focus your attention on and what you need to see happen when they are released before you would consider a trade.

This section explains which currencies to focus on so that not only can you filter news events by their likely impact but also the currencies they effect. This will then lead into other sections where we aim to identify the relative strength or weakness of these currencies in order to build a trading plan / idea.

Now we have our list of currencies to focus on (previous lecture) we need to now determine whether they are strong, weak or neutral so that we can use this information when constructing our trading plan/ideas (see future sections). Part 1 of this video covers how to easily identify the Long Term View on a currencies strength or weakness and how by understanding the bigger picture you can then align it with the short term economic events (next video) for the highest probability trading opportunities provided in the FX markets.

In the previous section we stressed the importance of understanding the long term view of a currency - bullish, bearish or neutral - and how this is directly related to a central bank's stance. As you will discover in future topics, knowing the outlook of a central bank on its economy and thus its local currency is massively important as it will help you to clearly identify strong currencies and weak currencies to trade. In this video I demo the website I use to provide me with a plethora of useful information regarding each major developed central bank and how this helps me keep my finger on the pulse of every major central bank every single week. Reviewing this site once a week in your early days will reward your handsomely down the line.

Following on from the previous video (part 1) we now move on to looking at how we are able to identify the short term strength or weakness on a currency pair. This will be provided via the economic events themselves and will either provide fresh strength or weakness to the currency depending on the outcome. You will then learn to how align this short term strength or weakness to that of the longer time frame perspective for maximum effect in your trades. The video also covers the important topic of how to avoid currencies where there is no bias i.e. neutral and in what other trading situations you would not trade certain currencies.

Now that you have learnt how to identify whether a currency is strong or weak (previous lecture) it is all about pairing polar opposites together for maximum impact. In this video we explore the importance of pairing a weak currency against a strong one or vice versa and why this is so important and powerful when constructing a trade plan/idea.

Ensure you keep up to date with the latest fundamental picture on each of the 8 major currencies! Here you will find an example template to guide you however it is up to you to ensure that you keep abreast of both the short term and long term fundamental drivers of each currency. You can do this via the regular monthly updates from each respective central bank which are communicated via the squawk/news feeds. This offers an insight into the current stance (bullish/strong, bearish/weak or neutral) of the respective central bank and their views on rates going forward and it is this which will ultimately guide your view on the currency going forward. It will also offer a view on what data is key to influencing their rate setting going forward. 

As a private individual trader we may not have the financial clout of a tier 1 bank or major hedge fund however we can closely replicate them. In this video we run through the critical resources you will need to not only plan a trade ahead of time but also execute it in a timely, efficient manner.

Use this in conjunction with the Forex News Gun (next lecture) to ensure you access every relevant news announcement in the quickest possible time.

This tool is absolutely priceless when it comes to trading the news as it often breaks the information seconds after the release, enabling us to take positions in a timely manner and therefore maximising gains from a trade. Here you will find a PDF with full instructions on how to download it to your computer. The next demonstration video will run you through exactly how to get it set-up and ready for an economic trading event and how to use it in real time to take a trading position.

The only downside to the free FNG news gun tool is that it can sometimes be a little temperamental. Therefore please take a look at https://next.newsimpact.com/NewsWidget/sbyt09032011 as a very cost-effective alternative.

Many of you have been emailing in about the FNG which we think is now officially out of use. It always did have issues but these were normally resolved by the developers quite quickly however these past few weeks it seems to have sadly died. We did try and get in touch with the guys who produced it but didn't hear back so it looks like its no longer going to be an option for us. A shame as it was a decent bit of kit when it worked. 

So what we have been doing in the meantime is looking into and testing a number of alternatives to ensure they were at the required level of use and we have narrowed it down to one produced by the guys over at Forexlive. It is called 'News Impact' and its excellent. It delivers the news a few seconds faster than the squawk, its lovely and visual so easy to use and you also get sound alongside this if needed. So its essentially a much superior version of the FNG. The downside is that this comes with a small monthly cost of $10 dollars but we do feel that this is pretty fair given what you get and how much it will help with your execution and you can get a 14 day trial to check it out before purchase. 

Now of course you still have the squawk as a free resource to deliver the news so by no means do you have to get this extra tool but if it can help make the difference of a few pips each trade, and help make your execution of a trade easier, then its probably worth the investment. Anyway we thought we would share it with you all as so many of you had been asking for an alternative to the FNG. Link below.

In this video we start to bring the individual topics together to help us construct trading plans/ideas for the week ahead. By building a trading plan for certain events we can be pro-active, leaving the execution of the trade to be the quickest and easiest bit. We run you through the routine you need to follow on a weekly, daily, hourly and executional basis to help tune you into the best trading opportunities the market has to offer each week. Essentially you will learn what to trade, how you will trade it, and when you will trade it. We use illustrations to bring the process to life.

When a trading plan comes together and the news release comes in as we wanted, attention then focuses in on executing the trade we had planned for. In this video we detail the 3 key elements of the trade namely how to get in, where to put your protective stop and where to put your take profit level.

In this video we discuss the two management techniques you will adopt to ensure that where possible we are reducing our risk on a trade effectively to keep our losses small and our gains large.

This demonstration video concentrates on the MT4 trading platform and will bring you fully up to speed with how to both set-up your charts and how to execute a trade.

This demonstration video concentrates on the C-Trader trading platform and will bring you fully up to speed with how to both set-up your charts and how to execute a trade.

This short video demonstrates part 2 of your management criteria - what to do when a trade hasn't done as you had anticipated one hour after execution.

Risk management is the holy grail to long term trading success. In this video you will learn to appreciate its importance and how to implement it into your trading. You will know exactly how to work out your trade/position size and how to keep this to a very small % risk of your overall trading account.

Risk management is a hugely important part of your trading so we need to get it right every single time. To help you do this, we talk you through how to use an online calculator which not only makes your life easier and quicker but ensures you get your calculations spot on every time.

This section is to bring everything together from the course using real and recent trade illustrations to cement your learnings. The video will highlight the fact that your routine to finding and executing a trade will remain the same every trade and will therefore help you to become a master of trading the news in time.

23.07.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on USDJPY and a sell trade on GBPUSD. In both trade examples you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and exit for a discretionary profit of +50 pips in 30 minutes.

04.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on AUDNZD. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and management for a best case scenario of +80 pips and a worst case scenario of +1pip having moved the stop to break even.

13.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a sell trade on NZDUSD and a buy trade on GBPNZD after worse than expected retail sales from New Zealand. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and management for a net trade outcome of approximately 30pips.

14.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on USDCAD and a buy trade on GBPCAD after worse than expected manufacturing data from Canada. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trade early for a net trade outcome of approximately 20 pips.

18.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on GBPCAD, GBPNZD, GBPJPY and a sell trade on EURGBP after better than expected inflation data from the UK. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trades early for a net trade outcome of approximately 150 pips.

25.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing a slightly different approach to trading the news than what you have seen in the course. Rather than trading a 'scheduled' economic event, we traded a breaking 'unscheduled' event by listening in to my FXPro squawk feed and acting upon fresh information from Japan to take advantage of JPY weakness directly after. This style of trading is more tricky than trading economic events as its important to be fully tuned into what comments/breaking news are 'fresh' and which are old and simply a repeat as only fresh information will move a currency. In the video we identify the specific breaking news item traded, why we traded that particular news announcement and why we decided to buy the GBPJPY currency pair for a short +30 pip scalping trade profit. In due course, I will add further video content to help you do exactly the same once you are up to speed with the main content. In essence you are still seeing the importance of pairing strong vs weak currency pairs.

25.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on USDJPY and a sell trade on EURUSD after better than expected consumer confidence data from the US. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trades early for a net trade outcome of approximately 15 pips. After I exited the trade both currency pairs continued to go in my intended direction and had I held out for longer I would have banked over +100 pips. This trade is therefore to show you that I don't always get my exit from a trade spot on, I have my weaknesses and taking profits too early is one of the main ones! Take heart from the fact that you won't always get it right but if you can still bank a profit (however small) that's a VERY good position to be in!

26.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a sell trade on EURUSD after better than expected data from the US. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trade after an hour for a profit of approximately 5 pips. This trade example shows that not every trade will hit a home run and if after an hour after news the trade hasn't even reached half way to your profit objective, its a warning sign to say the market has not reacted as you would expect. On these occasions it's best to cut the trade which in this case was for a small profit.

27.08.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a buy trade on USDJPY and a sell trade on EURUSD after better than expected GDP data from the US. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plans/ideas, execution and why I decided to close the trades early for a net trade outcome of approximately 45 pips.

03.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a SELL trade on EURUSD and EURGBP after bearish comments from the European Central Bank.

04.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a SELL trade on EURUSD after the recent NFP employment data from the USA. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plans/ideas, more aggressive execution than normal and why I decided to close the trades for a net trade outcome of approximately 9pips.

09.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a SELL trade on NZDUSD and a BUY trade on GBPNZD after the recent rate cut and bearish central bank comments from New Zealand. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plans/ideas, execution and why I decided to close the trades for a net trade outcome of approximately +45pips. Note that due to my screen recording software playing up I was unable to record the original trades, directly after the news, which generated a net return of +160pips.

10.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a BUY trade on AUDNZD after recent positive data from Australia and negative comments from NZ. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trades for a net trade outcome of approximately +20pips. A slightly different approach in regards to not taking the trade directly after news but still utilising powerful concepts taught in the course.

16.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a slightly more aggressive SELL trade on EURGBP after recent positive data from the UK and further negative comments from Europe. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trade quicker than usual for a profit of approximately +20pips.

23.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a SELL trade on NZDUSD and AUDUSD in light of weak Chinese data overnight. These trade example takes a different approach to usual by not entering live directly after news, instead using technical analysis to trade into fundamentally weak currency pairs. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plans/ideas, execution and why I decided to close the trades for a net trade outcome of approximately 70 pips in several hours. Technicals used solely on their own can be highly inconsistent however when combined with the fundamentals they are extremely powerful and these trade examples illustrate exactly that - combining the fundamentals (for currency selection and direction) and the technicals (for efficient entry and exit levels) for maximum effect.

25.09.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a BUY trade on USDJPY after recent positive data from the US. In this trade example you will learn about the trading plan/idea, execution and why I decided to close the trade for break even after a very lethargic response to the data. Confirmation that not every event is going to create a huge move and when we see a very limited reaction we can make the decision to cut the trade to take risk off the table.

These were technical based entries to benefit from a clear pull back using a number of powerful clues to help time entry into fundamentally bearish currency pairs. These trades confirm that not every trade works out as planned and when we don't get the reaction we expect pretty soon it is all about cutting trades quickly. The two trades together resulted in a net return of around breakeven.

This approach of leaving the good trades to run and cutting the bad trades quickly is a key component to generating a profit at the end of the month.

01.12.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a BUY trade on USDCAD after worse than expected Canadian GDP data, and why I decided to exit the trade after 15 minutes for a small +7 pip gain.

As the pair struggled for momentum I decided to cut the trade for a small loss of around -10 pips.

14.12.2015 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a technical BUY trade on USDCAD at the same time as commodities (oil, metals) weakened, generating a profit of +45 pips in around 2 hours.

06.01.2016 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a technical BUY trade on USDCAD at the same time as commodities (oil, metals) weakened, and a SELL trade on AUDUSD in light of weak Chinese data, generating a profit of +40 pips in around 30 minutes.

07.01.2016 Live trade example showcasing WHY I took a SELL trade on AUDJPY, NZDJPY, CADJPY, NZDUSD and AUDUSD in light of large Chinese stock market falls, generating a profit of +250 pips in around an hour.

08.01.2016 - A quick summary video of another two trades taken this afternoon to profit from the continued Chinese stock market fall out. The main theme this week has been market uncertainty and fear which has led to stock market losses, a much stronger JPY (safe haven) and a noticiably weaker AUD and CAD which has enabled some very high probability trading opportunities (pairing weak vs strong currencies) via the likes of AUDJPY and CADJPY. Selling these two currency pairs this afternoon, as stock markets fell and oil weakened allowed another +30 pips in 20 minutes.

11.01.2016 - A quick summary video of another two trades taken this afternoon in light of the continued Chinese stock market fall out. The main theme following on from last week has been market uncertainty and fear which has led to stock market losses, a much stronger JPY (safe haven) and a noticeably weaker AUD and CAD which has enabled some very high probability trading opportunities (pairing weak vs strong currencies) via the likes of AUDJPY and CADJPY. Selling these two currency pairs this morning, as stock markets fell and oil weakened was a strong trading idea/plan but there was no clean follow through and with stock markets/oil remaining more robust than expected, I cut the trades fairly quickly for a net loss of -13 pips.

11.01.2016 - A quick summary video of another three trades taken this afternoon to profit from the continued Chinese stock market fall out. This was essentially the second bite of the cherry to those trades taken in the previous lecture (trade example 69). Although the morning had seen risk aversion die down some what, the market uncertainty and fear kicked back into life this afternoon leading to further stock market losses. We witnessed a much stronger JPY (safe haven) and a noticeably weaker AUD, NZD and CAD (as oil fell sharply). This therefore enabled some very high probability trading opportunities (pairing weak vs strong currencies) via the likes of AUDJPY, NZDJPY and CADJPY.
