Major anouncements help

[Iqbal]

I have heard that major economic announcements such as non farm payrolls can make currencies very volitile, can anyone tell me which other anouncements are important and where i can find out when these anouncements willbe made?

Thankyou in advance.

Thanks for the calendar.

Any input on which news events typically cause the biggest market moves?

 

[Buk]

generally, the releases in BOLD are considered to be of key importance/focus on the day.

As for causing market moves?! if any news release comes in out of sync with expectations, it'll often sling the pair(s) around like a rag doll for a wee while afterwards.

keep yer eyes peeled & pay particular att'n to your Non-Farms Payroll release, any time that 150yr old windbag (Greenspan) decides to haul his **** out of his zimmer & spook the markets...and the major inflationary releases.

always expect the unexpected.

Also PPI and CPI
These are monthly reports but you might get a sense of the results by following the daily crb raw industrials index.
