Most Important Issues Of Financial Market Analysis


Online trading is a very complicated system and only its full understanding, knowledge and experience can let you trade Forex successfully. The interest in technical analysis is growing in Singapore Forex and other Asian countries and sometimes it totally replaces the fundamental analysis. But it is clear that technical analysis is not enough for a profitable trading in Forex market. The world economy is so unpredictable so any information can have a big and sudden influence on the market and cannot be predicted by just looking at the graphs.

Financial calendar is a good instrument for the fundamental analysis .You can use it in order to be updated with all financial news and events and be ready to the movements in the market when something important happens in the world. You can find a calendar with financial events on many economical sites as well as on the sites of all Singapore brokers. The most influencing the market events usually occur in USA (USD) and Euro zone (Euro). That is the reason why 60% of world trading is done on EUR/USD currency pair. This is the most traded currency pair in Forex as Europe and USA have the biggest economical systems that influence all the world economy. Though trading in Singapore is mostly concentrated on such currency pairs as AUD, JPY, SGD and USD, still the currency pair EUR/USD has a big popularity among Asian traders as well.

The Euro zone Governing Council meets every month, on Thursday of the second week when the Europe interest rate is announced. During this meeting the members give the average review of Europe financial development prospects and rates of interest that is the most important tool to control liquidity.

The similar announcement of the interest rates in USA is also important for the fundamental analysis of USD. Interest rate of both USA and Europe is a great indicator for the currency pair EUR/USD. We also suggest to watch the cross-currencies that don’t include USD for a wider view of a fundamental analysis. While trading with EUR/USD currency pair there is a good reason to analyze the cross-currencies such as EUR/JPY and EUR/CHF. The Swiss (CHF) economy, for example depends on Euro zone economy. That’s why the fall of EUR/CHF causes the change in rate of EUR/USD.

There are a lot of traders who concentrate their attention on both technical and fundamental analysis while trading on financial market. Though these analyses are very different by approach, they give a broader and detailed picture of the market. It is important to be constantly updated in the world political and financial events while trading in Forex market, as any event in one of the country’s economy may make the chain of movements in Forex market charts.
