Good afternoon, dear traders.
Today at 14:30 CET we expect the release of two macroeconomic indicators: Building Permits, USA and Core CPI, Canada. The first index expresses the number of new housing building permits issued by the government last month. It allows assessing the real estate potential growth, and also secondary demand goods and technology sector. Positive data permits expecting a momentum for domestic consumption and production in the USA. The second indicator shows the change in prices of goods and services in Canada with the exception of the most volatile components: food and energy. The Core CPI defines inflation rate which affects the Bank of Canada monetary policy. The CPI release may lead to a significant boost of the Canadian dollar against its most liquid competitors, including the US dollar. Both indices are expressed on a monthly basis and influence considerably the investment expectations.
After position opening, Trailing Stop is to be moved after the Parabolic values, near the next fractal peak. Updating is enough to be done every day after the formation of 5 new H4 candlesticks, needed for the Bill Williams fractal formation. Thus, we are changing the probable profit/loss ratio to the breakeven point.
- Position Sell
- Sell stop below 1.12248
- Stop loss above 1.13615
