EarnForex.com Monthly Newsletter

*May 6, 2014*

Welcome to the latest issue of EarnForex.com newsletter — May 2014.

In this issue of EarnForex.com newsletter I will remind you about the
most important Forex-related events of the last month and will also
show you the list of the site's latest updates.

*
Notice about April issue*

If you are wondering what happened to last month's newsletter issue,
do not worry. Due to some technical problems it could not
be sent out in time, so we decided to skip it completely. The current
issue will cover some of the important facts from the last month.

*
EDITORIAL: Subjective vs. Objective*

When traders operate in Forex, they use some method of /market
analysis/ and produce some /trading decisions/ based on that analysis.
Both the analysis method and the
type of trading decisions can be either /objective/ or /subjective/.

*Objective analysis* is based on scientific method; it can be tested
and called either useful (showing some predictive power) or useless
(no predictive power). In case of Forex trading, it would still be
based on probabilities, but they would be properly measured.
An example of the objective analysis method is a simple moving average
cross trading rule, which insists on buying when faster MA crosses
slower MA from below and on selling when the faster MA crosses the
slower one from above.
Although it is not the best rule out there, it is nevertheless
objective and testable.

*Subjective analysis* is based some unmeasurable or fuzzily defined
rules. Manual chart pattern analysis is a good example of subjective
analysis. It is nearly impossible to backtest this method properly, so
its validity cannot be falsified or confirmed.

*Objective trading decisions* are decisions that are fully defined
prior to entering the market. Even subjective analysis may result in
clearly defined entry and exit levels as well as a calculated position
size.

*Subjective trading decisions* are not clearly defined and cannot be
assessed for errors and inconsistencies when trading performance is
reviewed for some period. Even objective analysis may result in
subjective trading decisions.

Obviously, a trader should try to use only objective methods in his
trading because those methods (even if wrong) can be properly tested
and judged, while with the subjective methods a trader can only hope
that the chosen technique is profitable and he is executing it
correctly.

*
Overview of the major currency pairs' performance in April*

*EUR/USD* — entered a long sideways market following a moderate jump
during the first days of April. It was at the maximum at 1.3905 on
April 11, at its minimum at 1.3672 on April 4, finishing the month at
1.3867.

*GBP/USD* — demonstrated a steady uptrend during the whole month.
The highest monthly rate was at 1.6900 on April 30, while the lowest
— at 1.6553 on April 4. GBP/USD finished April trading at 1.6872.

*USD/JPY* — dropped significantly during the first days and traded
sideways during the rest of the month. The pair rose to as high as
104.12 on April 4, reaching a bottom at 101.32 on April 11 and closing
the month with the 102.23 rate.

*EUR/JPY* — fell slightly during the first decade of April and
recovered somewhat during the last two decades. The monthly high was
at 143.47 on April 2, the monthly low — at 140.07 on April 8.
Trading ended at 141.74 for this currency pair.

*GBP/JPY* — managed to rise above opening level despite a moderate
decline in the beginning of the month. The maximum level for this pair
was 173.13 on April 3, while the minimum — 169.48 on April 15. The
month's trading ended at 172.47 for GBP/JPY.

*
Fundamental background of the past month*

The US dollar remained extremely weak in April. The weakness stayed
<http://www.topforexnews.com/2014/05/03/poor-week-dollar-despite-fed-nfp/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=n201405>
at the beginning of May despite the stimulus reduction
<http://www.topforexnews.com/2014/04/30/dollar-weaker-fed-trims-stimulus/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=n201405>
from the Federal Reserve and very good non-farm payrolls
<http://www.topforexnews.com/2014/05/02/dollar-jumps-non-farm-payrolls-beat-expectations/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=n201405>
.

The euro was mostly flat but remains in danger ahead of the European
Central Bank policy meeting on May 8 as European policy makers were
talking about possibility of adding monetary stimulus.

The Japanese yen was moving sideways too even though the conflict
between Russian and Ukraine made traders reluctant to risk. The Bank
of Japan refrained from stimulus
<http://www.topforexnews.com/2014/04/30/boj-refrains-stimulus-yen-unable-keep-gains/?utm_source=newsletter&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=n201405>
, yet these positive factors were not able to boost the Japanese
currency either.

The Great Britain pound was among the best performers on the Forex
market in the past month as economic indicators were very good for the
most part, spurring talks that the Bank of England will raise interest
rates earlier. GBP/USD rallied 1.1 percent and at the start of May
reached

the highest level since August 2009.

The Canadian dollar was relatively strong, bolstered by the positive
employment data
<http://www.statcan.gc.ca/daily-quotidien/140404/dq140404a-eng.htm>
at the start of April and retained its strength after the Bank of
Canada monetary policy meeting
<http://www.bankofcanada.ca/2014/04/fad-press-release-2014-04-16/>
.

The Australian dollar was rising in the first half of April after the
Reserve Bank of Australia reiterated
<http://www.rba.gov.au/media-releases/2014/mr-14-05.html>
its forecast of stable interest rates. The currency reversed its
movement in the second half and closed virtually flat.

The New Zealand dollar was surprisingly week over the month, though
gained some strength after the Reserve Bank of New Zealand performed
<http://www.rbnz.govt.nz/news/2014/5710394.html>
an interest rate hike.

Gold traded on the weak side in April, sometimes reacting
counter-intuitively
