One of the most anticipated market events came today
and market’s reactions were mixed. As expected Federal Reserve kept interest
rates unchanged. Dollar initially fell, then rose and then dropped again. This
kind of reaction must have cost a lot of market participants a lot of money. Those
that tried to trade in both directions must have lost money. Of course, these kinds
of things do happen. One has to be very patient and not to give in to despair when
a streak of losses occur. It is far more important to follow your system and
trade with discipline.
Two key events are in the horizon. One is Bank of
England rate decision that is due tomorrow at 11:00 GMT. I have intentions
trading British Pound against one of commodities, possibly New Zealand
currency. The same can be said about the other event: European Central Bank
interest rate decision coming at 11:45 GMT. I will probably be looking at
eur/nzd pair to make a long or a short trade. Non Farm payrolls will surely be
the last risk event this week. I see gold as of particular interest for this
event. It has risen quite a bit in the last month and will probably correct
itself to make new lows in the coming weeks. Let us see what happens tomorrow though.
Do not overtrade!
