Economic Indicators for Futures Traders
We explain what the various economic
reports are and what they can tell us about the economy and the possible
direction of the futures markets. Traders have to be very aware of
what these reports mean, not just for trading, but to avoid being caught
on the wrong side of the market when they come out.
When these reports
come out, the futures markets will move. You have to understand what
these reports mean and how they will effect the futures markets. We
have put together a short overview of each report and how the futures
markets that will be most affected will react to the numbers.
Economics Books for Futures
Traders
There are some
very good books out there on Economics. We had a hard time going
through the books out there, but we believe that we found some very useful
books. The ones we choose to work with were clear, simple and concise,
they did not bore us to death with PHD level Economics. We have also
included a list of books that we referred to occasionally that we found very
helpful.
This is a list of links to the various
government agencies and groups that put out the different economic
reports. Wherever possible, we have also included a link the
economic report outline on our website if you need more information.
