Hello, suppose you are operating with the GBP/USD and the fundamental data of the morning, it is promoted to the rise during the London session.You expect the price to make a correction and then continue going up, aligning with the foundations and technical analysis.However, when it opens the US, the news is positive, the opposite of what you need: negative data for London information to align with bad US data and thus push the price even above.The question is: Does the most recent and relevant economic news have more weight if it coincides with technical analysis?Do the previous fluctuations in the day lose importance since the impact of the news lasts only a few hours within a day?Thank you.Find your favorite pattern.
If you have an upward vision for both the pound and for the dollar, do not operate that pair.If the dollar is climbing, look for a weak currency to sell it.Each news has a different impact depending on the moment it comes out.I think your question does not have a definitive answer.Some news only moves the market for a few minutes, while others can mark a trend for months, and there are all kinds of variations between both ends.I always check the news calendar before entering an operation.When a news is published, I have already planned several possibilities.I know what impact each scenario could have and I position myself in advance.If hoc legere scis nimium eruditionis habes

You are complicating something that is quite simple.It is not which news is "more important", but what money moves at that time.There are news that the market ignores completely and others that generate an earthquake, and it is not always because of their objective relevance, but for how the great players react.If banks and institutional funds are positioned in a certain way, even "bad" news for an asset can end up promoting it up.Instead of trying to find a magical formula on which news matters most, observe the flow of the market and real reactions to each event.If you see that a fact that should move the market in one direction does not, there you have your answer: someone bigger had already discounted that information or is absorbing liquidity to take the price where it is convenient for it.

The key is to understand how market psychology works.It is not a matter of whether recent news is more relevant than the previous ones, but of how operators interpret it in the general context.A bad data in the US could have driven the pound if investors were looking for reasons to sell dollars, but if the general feeling is still upward to the USD, that same news could be ignored.What you should do is analyze the dominant trend and see if the news fits or not with that movement.If the market is looking for reasons to sell dollars, any bad news will amplify that movement.If the market is in "buy the rumor and sell the news", you could see a reaction contrary to the expected.

Let's see, if you think the market moves logically, you are in the wrong business.There are times when the news moves the price for hours or days and others in which nothing seems to happen.It is not about what news is more "important", but what history is buying the market at that time.Instead of asking you if the morning news no longer matters because another more recent came out, ask yourself what actors are moving the price and what interest they have.If the London traders have already made their movement and those of New York see something different, do not surprise yourself if the market changes direction without prior notice.
I think you focus too much on the foundations and not on the price action.It doesn't matter if the most recent news is important if the market already had another direction in mind.Sometimes, traders only use the news as an excuse to take the price where they want.Look at the key levels and how the price reacts.If the pound was rising strongly and a positive fact of the dollar, it only generates a mild setback, it is possible that the upward trend continues.On the other hand, if the news causes an abrupt turn and breaks important supports, then you should take it into account.
Economic news is just a pretext to move the market, nothing more.The big players already know what they are going to do before the data is published.Why do you think there are many times strange movements just before important news?Because someone is already positioned in the right direction.Instead of obsessing with which news it is most relevant, observes the reaction of the market.If a news should have uploaded an asset but this remains flat or low, it means that there is hidden pressure.Learn to read those signals instead of looking for answers in the headlines.

What matters is not only what news is the most recent, but the context in which it occurs.If during the morning the data promoted the Libra and then in the US. The data were positive for the dollar, that does not necessarily mean that the pound must fall immediately.There may be a fight between the traders of both sessions before the final direction is decided.The best thing you can do is follow the flow of orders and see how the market reacts.If after the US news the price remains in a range without a clear direction, then there is still no consensus.If you break hard in one direction, there you have your answer.
Sometimes operators believe that the market must behave in a certain way just because "so it should be."But the reality is that dynamics change every day.What worked last week may not work today.Capital flows do not follow a simple logic of "good news, up / bad news, low."If the London traders bought based on good data and then in the US, equally good data for the dollar appear, both effects may be annulled with each other.Or that the market had simply discounted both news before.The important thing is not which news is the last one, but how the great players react to each one.

There is a basic rule in trading: "The price discounts everything."If the London data were positive for the pound but the US opening brought positive data for the dollar, the impact will depend on which information was already assimilated in the price.Sometimes the most recent news matters more, but other times the market simply follows its own path without paying attention to them.Instead of asking if the latest news is the most important, observe the structure of the market.If you see that the price continues to respect trends and key levels, then the fundamentals are acting as support.If there is an unexpected turn and the price breaks strongly, then the recent news did have an important weight.

If you think each news has a fixed impact duration, you will have problems in this business.It is not as simple as "the news only affects a few hours."Some news barely move the market and others change the direction of a trend for weeks.There is no exact formula to measure its impact.The best thing you can do is observe the price reaction.If high -impact news only generates a short movement and then the price returns to where it was, it means that the market did not consider it relevant.But if the news completely changes the price behavior, then you should pay attention.

The problem is that you are looking for a structured response in a market that is not structured.Trading is not an exact science.There are times when the last news is the most important and others in which nothing changes.The key is to identify which story is dominating the market at all times.Are the operators worried about growth?For inflation?For monetary policy?Depending on the dominant narrative, some news will be key and others will be ignored.Learn to identify that and you will stop asking which news matters more.

The problem is that you think the news controls the market, when it really is the market that decides what news matters.You can have "good" data and the price falls, or "bad" data and the price rises.Because?Because the big players had already positioned their money before the announcement.Stop looking for logic in a system designed to confuse the majority.Instead of obsessing with the latest news, look at the price levels that the market respects.If after an important publication the price does not move in the expected direction, it means that something else is at stake.

It is an interesting question, but difficult to answer with a fixed rule.Some news has an immediate impact and then forgot, while others can mark the trend for weeks.It depends on the general context and what factors are weighing more at that time.Personally, I look more at how the price reacts than in the news itself.If a positive fact for the dollar fails to make the USD rise, then the market feeling is probably bassist.If a news generates a strong movement but the price does not break key levels, it is possible that it is only noise.

Look, if you think you can predict the market based on news, you will have many unpleasant surprises.Professional traders do not operate news, operate expectations.What matters is not what is published, but what the market expected to be published.If they already discounted bad news and suddenly another worse comes out, then we could see a strong impact.But if the news is "bad" and the price does not fall, it means that the vendors have already done their job before.The market is not logical, it is a handling machine.
The importance of news depends on many things: the market state, available liquidity and the dominant narrative.Not all news affects the same way.Some cause immediate reactions and then the market follows its course, while others can mark the guideline for a long time.If recent news is in line with the previous trend, it probably reinforces that movement.But if the news goes against the dominant trend and fails to change it, then it is irrelevant.It is more important to observe how the price reacts than attempting to predict its impact with logic.

The market does not move because yes, it moves because there is money entering and leaving.A news can be the excuse to move the price, but if the big players have no interest in reacting to it, they will simply ignore it.What you should do is see how support and resistance levels act after news.If the price breaks strongly a key level after an important fact, then it has relevance.But if the reaction is minimal or reversed quickly, it means that the news was not as important as you thought.

Most retail traders lose money because they try to operate based on logic."If this news is good for the dollar, then the USD should rise."It sounds good in theory, but in practice the market works backwards.If positive news does not boost the price, it is because it was already discounted.If negative news generates an exaggerated reaction, it is because someone is taking advantage of it to hunt Stops.Learn to read the price action and stop waiting for the market to behave "as it should."
The latest news will always be the most relevant ... until it stops being.The market has short memory and moves fast.A news that seems key in the morning can be completely irrelevant in the afternoon if another event appears that changes the panorama.What matters is not the news itself, but the story that the market is building at that time.If the trend is bullish and bad news barely generates a setback, it means that buyers continue to dominate.If a news completely changes the price behavior, then you have to pay attention.
Your problem is that you are looking for fixed rules in an environment that constantly changes.There is no unique answer for your question.Some news has an immediate impact, others take to reflect on the price and some simply do not matter.The best way to know if a news is relevant is observing volume and volatility after publication.If the price moves strongly and breaks key levels, then the news has been important.If the reaction is weak or the market ignores it, then the dominant trend continues to operate.

Operating news is like playing with fire.If you don't know what you do, you burn.You cannot assume that the market will react in a specific way just because a news is "good" or "bad."What matters is the reaction of the great players.If an important news does not move the market, it means that the information was already discounted or that there is another force majeure at stake.Instead of trying to analyze each news, see how it affects the price structure and adapt to what is happening in real time.

The market is a reflection of the feeling of the participants, not of the news.If the trend is upward, even bad news can be ignored or interpreted as purchase opportunities.If the trend is bassist, even good data can be sold.The key is to understand in which stage of the market cycle you are.If buyers dominate, any excuse will be valid to continue going up.If sellers control, any negative data will accelerate falls.Do not operate the news, the trend operates.

The news is just excuses to move the market.The big players already know what they are going to do before the data is published.If the price goes up with bad news or low with a good one, it is because those who really send in the market already had their prepared play.If you want to survive in this game, stop predicting the impact of each news and begins to analyze the price reaction.The market will never do what you expect, but it will always give you clues about what comes if you learn to read the price action.

The importance of news depends on whether the dominant narrative changes or not.If a publication reinforces the current trend, then it is relevant and will probably have an impact.But if you contradict the trend and the market ignores it, it means that the feeling is still strong in the original direction.Do not obsess with each news individually.Instead, observe the data set and how they align with the market structure.What really moves prices is not a particular news, but the accumulation of expectations and interpretations over time.

I don't know why you complicate so much.If the latest news is relevant, the market will react.If it is not, the price will continue doing what I was doing before.You do not need to go back.Instead of wasting time trying to decipher which news is most important, pay attention to what the price does.The big players do not read holders, read the liquidity of the market.Learn to do it too.
