Forex Intermarket Analysis
Using cross-sectoral analysis of its currency trade
I'm assuming that if you're reading this article then you already have a knowledge fundamental foreign exchange (Forex), so I'll quickly go through the basics and goes directly to the central theme of intermarket analysis.
If you is addicted to the financial markets like me, the issue of cross-sectoral analysis is fascinating because it can apply to make money trading currencies (the main theme of this article) as readily as it can be applied to commodities. As you can probably guess, the term "cross" in this context simply means looking beyond the usual economic data in order to reach a conclusion about whether the price of a currency pair is in charge determined. The opposite of intermarket analysis is evident fundamental analysis, usually focusing on key economic data such as employment, work and rates of interest.
Some of the most significant cross-relationships have to do with gold, oil, and bond yields to 10 years in the States USA. The reason the 10-year yield is important is because this value can be correlated with the index value of a dollar or a basket of goods that can reveal overall strength of the U.S. dollar.
When it comes to gold and oil (which are certainly two of the most important in today's world), prices of these products, most affect the currencies of the countries that produce these products. There are two primary relationships when it comes to gold and oil: Canada is a major oil producer, as one Canadian dollar (CAD) will be affected by changes in oil prices, and Australia produces a large amount of gold, and there are many companies that manufacture products in Australia gold, like rare coins, so the Australian dollar (AUD) will be affected by changes in prices gold.
These are some of the most profound of intersectoral relations in the global economy, but keep in mind that these relations are * not * exclusive of coins that I just mentioned. In other words, changes in gold prices will not affect only the price of the Australian dollar and let the value of each currency without other changes, changes in the value of these important commodities like gold and oil will affect all foreign currency, what happens is that a larger proportion of the Australian economy has interests trade in gold, so if gold becomes more expensive, then it becomes harder to do business.
Although oil and gold have a "Ship flagship foreign exchange affect most, fluctuations in the price of each of these products will also affect all the currencies of a somewhat predictable. When it comes to gold, a basic rule is that the value of the currency of all nations will be reduced when the gold becomes more expensive, as this may indicate that more people are buying precious metals, because there can be so much faith in the main governing bodies in the world.
The way that affects the currency oil prices is very interesting, because in this moment in history (but hopefully not for much longer) almost all the major economies is dependent on oil for transportation and heating. The way in which changes in oil prices affect the currency of a country depends on whether or not that country is an importer or an exporter of oil. For example, Canada has traditionally been an exporter of oil, while the United States has been an importer. So when oil becomes more expensive, this can be detrimental to the U.S. economy and good for an oil exporter like Canada.
As a currency or currency trader, it is important understand these relationships so that the signals do not result from trading one source. It is also good to know how they affect the main products of currency prices because it also You can use this knowledge to make money in the world stock market by investing in companies as a Canadian oil producer or a company Australian specializes in gold coins.
