Tips for Traders:

● Wednesday is the Big Day for the Dollar. US inflation data (CPI) will be the key event. Any deviation from expectations may cause sharp market reactions, particularly in USD pairs. Expect higher volatility!
● Keep a close watch on the UK and EU inflation and economy data, too. Keep an eye on UK labor data (Tuesday), GDP (Thursday), German CPI (Friday), and Eurozone industrial production (Friday). These will influence EUR and GBP.
● Focus on US labor market clues. Initial Jobless Claims on Thursday provide insight into US employment trends and could affect Fed expectations.
● Manage your risk. During periods of high volatility—especially around major news releases—always use stop-loss orders. Set them based on key technical support and resistance levels, and never risk more than 1–2% of your account per trade to protect your capital.
● Don’t trade into the storm. If you're a beginner or feeling unsure, it's best to avoid entering the market right before or immediately after major data releases, when price action can be highly unpredictable and volatile. Stay safe and let the dust settle before making your move.
