The Bank of Canada (BOC) will announce their rate decision today at 9:00am sharp.
Here´s what analysts expect:
9:00am (NY Time) CA BOC Rate Decision Forecast 1.00% Previous 1.00%
ACTION: USD/CAD BUY 0.75% SELL 1.25%
The Trade Plan
Most analyst agree that the BOC will hold rates at 1.00%. I´ll be trading this release with a 0.25% deviation using Spike Trading method. In the event of a surprise hike it´s almost guaranteed that we´ll see strong market movement immediately after the release.
We’ll be trading the Consumer Price Index (CPI) figure out of New Zealand today. CPI is Inflation, therefore it is a very high impact release. Here’s the forecast:
5:45pm (NY Time) NZ CPI q/q Forecast 0.8% Previous 1.0%
ACTION: NZD/USD BUY 1.1% SELL 0.5%
The Basic Plan
Our focus will be on the headline CPI number. If we get a better release of 1.1%, we should be looking to BUY NZD/USD; if we get a lower release 0.5%, then we’ll see NZD/USD move down. Usually if our BUY or SELL figures are hit, we could expect the market to move about 40~50 pips within the next 30~90 minutes.
