Frequently asked questions

Which economic calendar events move Forex and Gold the most?

US Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP), Consumer Price Index (CPI) inflation, FOMC interest rate decisions, and central bank press conferences from the Fed, ECB, BoE, and BoJ cause the largest volatility spikes.

Why does price sometimes drop even when economic news is positive?

Markets move on the difference between the Actual number and the Consensus Forecast. If a positive result was already priced in or misses whisper expectations, traders often sell the news.

Do prop firms restrict trading during high-impact news?

Many funded account programs prohibit opening or closing trades 2 to 5 minutes before and after red-folder (high-impact) news releases due to extreme slippage and spread widening.
