Market News
The ECB made its move yesterday by cutting
deposit rates to below zero, with the main refi rate being lowered to 10 basis
points. The EUR immediately suffered but
bounced back, even though the news has a negative bias to it. Today, it could not hold on to all of its
gains from yesterday and we suspect that that there will be a tendency to slip
further in the short term.
The BoE kept rates on hold and while the Euro
decision was being announced EURGBP was sold off aggressively, but again
rebounded.
USD/JPY was quiet in Tokyo this week with
trend and momentum indicators pointing upwards and should end as an up week.
The GDP figures on Monday are ones to watch if you are trading JPY crosses,
with soft expectations for the numbers.

Binary Trading Startegies
Following
on from last week when we talked about trading in volatile periods (e.g. when
news events come out) I want to say a little about trend prediction.
There
are many indicators to determine a trend.
In the above graph I have used a Moving Average (MA) and a Parabolic SAR. When a short term MA crosses the long term MA
and 1 or 2 SAR points are plotted you could say that a trend has been
formed. Clearly this is very simplistic,
but if you HAVE got the trend correct you can then trade High or Low with some
conviction.
It's
always good to try out your strategies on the demo platform.
Happy
trading!
