ECB (European Central Bank) will be rendering its rate decision today, it is widely believed that ECB will keep current rate unchanged. Here’s the forecast:

7:45am (NY Time) EU ECB Rate Decision Forecast 1.00% Previous 1.00%
ACTION: EUR/USD BUY 1.25% SELL 0.75%

The Trade Plan
ECB rate decision comes in two part, the first one is the 7:45am rate announcement followed by the 8:30am Press Conference where ECB chief Trichet issues the official statement on this rate decision. Since it is extremely unlikely to get a surprise from ECB, there is usually no volatility following this release, we should focus on the actual Trichet’s speech in 45 minutes.

CAD

We’ll be receiving GDP release from Canada today. Here’s the forecast:

8:30am NY Time Canada GDP m/m Forecast 0.2% Previous 0.1%
ACTION: USD/CAD BUY -0.1% SELL 0.5%

The Trade Plan
I’ll be looking to BUY USD/CAD if we get a -0.1% or lower release, and SELL USD/CAD if we get a 0.5% or higher… With recent strength risk aversion sentiment driven market and stock market tumbling, a stronger GDP should provide some support for the CAD and I’ll be looking for a Retracement Trade Method for this release.
