Retail Sales is usually a very tradable release as traders draw direct correlation between retail activities with economic health.
Here’s Forecast:
8:30am Core Retail Sales Forecast 0.5% Previous -0.1%
ACTION: USD/CAD BUY 1.0% / SELL -0.1%
The Trade Plan
I’m going to be looking for a deviation around 0.5% for this news. Since the forecast is at 0.8%, a reading of -0.1% would be negative for the CAD and we’ll be looking to BUY USD/CAD; however, if the opposite is true, or a 1.0% of actual release, I’ll be looking to SELL USD/CAD.
