US Retail Sales (Less Autos)
Trade Call for August 13, 2008
TRADE CALL RECAPS
Our last live trades were this morning when we were watching
three news releases. First was the UK CPI report, and we were
looking to long the GBPUSD if the number came out at least 0.2%better than expected. The actual number came out with a 0.2%
deviation, so our safe trigger was met and we entered this
trade. We had some traders report profits of up to 35 pips,
depending on their entries. To see a video of this trade,

Next we were watching the Canadian and US Trade Balance
reports, with our focus on the Canadian number. We were
looking to short the EURCAD if the number came out at least
$0.8 Billion better than expected. The actual number came out
with a $0.04 Billion deviation, so it did not meet our safe
trigger. The US Trade Balance came out with a deviation of
$5.7 Billion, which met the $1.5 Billion deviation to trigger a
safe trade, but we only had a small move of 10-15 pips on this
release. This is why we are focusing more on the Canadian
Trade Balance figure. We did not get a video of this trade.Â
OUR NEXT LIVE ON THE NEWS TRADE CALL
Our next live trade opportunity will be when the US Retail
Sales report is released at 8:30 am EDT tomorrow. (…)
Trade Opportunity Tonight / Trade Call for June 11, 2008
TRADE CALL RECAPS
Our last live trades were yesterday when we were watching three
news releases. First was the UK Industrial Production, and we
were looking to long the GBPUSD if the number came out at least
0.5% better than expected. The actual number came out with a
0.2% deviation, so our safe trigger was not met. (…)

Trade Opportunity Tonight / Trade Call for April 14 / Bank Flow Weekly Recap
TRADE CALL RECAP
Our last live trades were on Thursday when we were watching the
Canadian and US Trade Balance reports. I cautioned about
trading the US Trade Balance as the Weekly Jobless Claims was
coming out at the same time. Both Trade Balance reports met
our safe triggers and we had several traders get in on each. (…)
Two Trade Opportunities Tonight / Live Trade Call for March 13, 2008
 TWO TRADING OPPORTUNITIES LATER TODAY
There will be two opportunities to trade tonight. The first
will be when the NZD Retail Sales report is released at 5:45 pm
EDT. The expectation for this report is 0.3%. We have placed
a safe trigger of 0.3% for this release. This report has met
our safe trigger in ten out of the last twelve months and the
NZD/USD has moved between 20 and 40 pips each time. We will
not have the Live Trade Room open, but I wanted to make you
aware of this potential trade opportunity. (…)
