BACKGROUND FOR THIS TRADING STRATEGY

With this news trading strategy, you wait until the news is announced and see what the figures are.
You let the initial market reaction take its course but you are looking for a signal to enter when the
marketreverses temporarily allowing you to get a good entry.

For example, the Reserve bank of Australia announces an interest rate increase from 3 to 3.25 %

The reaction to this type of news will see the Australian dollar increasing in hundreds of pips in
minutes.

But with this system, you are not jumping in the initial rush. You also do not trade the breakouts.
You just wait for the price to settle down a bit and that’s when you enter.
