TRADE CALL RECAP
For our last live trade call, we were looking at the US CPI
yesterday morning, and we were looking to enter a short on the
GBPUSD if the figure came out at least 0.1% better than
expected. The actual number came out with no deviation, so it
did not meet our safe trigger and we did not enter a trade. We
did not get a video of this particular trade.
OUR NEXT LIVE ON THE NEWS TRADE CALL
Tomorrow we an opportunity to trade when the UK Retail Sales
Report is released at 4:30 am EDT. We will focus on the Retail
Sales (MoM) figure, and the expected number for this report is
0.5%. A higher than expected number will be good for the GBP
and signal a long on the GBP/USD, and a lower than expected
number will be bad for the GBP and signal a short on the
GBP/USD. We will be looking for a deviation of 0.4% on this
report to trigger us into a safe trade.
This release has met our safe trigger in eight out of the last
twelve months, and the market has moved between 30 and 90 pips
each time. It met our safe trigger last month and provided
traders with up to 35 pips of profit, depending on their
entries. To see the video of last month’s trade, click on the

This is our current outlook for this trade; however, it is
subject to change as market conditions may change by tomorrow.
