Why Is It Helpful?
In the long run, fundamentals drive price action by answering key questions regarding current events. Some common questions for the forex market are:
• Is the economy expanding rapidly or contracting?
• What parts of the economy are booming or about to bust?
• Are new jobs being created?
• What parts of the economy are central bankers most concerned with?
You can use the answers to these questions to determine if a currency will be strong or weak in the future.
