While the timing of elections, meetings of the FMOC or European Central Bank, releases of government reports, and other such events are known in advance to traders, these events or announcements often produce market reactions that are not widely expected. However, these are situations for which traders can prepare with sound trading strate- gies that minimize the risk of being caught off guard. There are a few general points that should be made about these fundamental factors. • First, when a government releases an economic report, most of the numbers are estimates based on other estimates. Yes, the estimates are tabulated by experienced officials who have access to extensive data, but they generally are not precise counts. Nevertheless, these are numbers that all traders have, and the market has to live with them. t r a d e s e c r e t s 24 • Second, when traders react to the numbers or results, they may actually be responding to what the market expected rather than the numbers themselves. A report that might seem bullish may instead send prices sharply lower. All traders know the market axiom, “Buy the rumor, sell the fact.” In some cases, bullish numbers may not be bullish enough to drive the market higher, or bad news may not be as bad as expected, and prices actually go up instead. In addition to being aware of the date and time of a report or announcement, traders should also have an idea about what the market expects so they can reduce their chances of being surprised and hurt by subsequent price action. • Third, an outcome or number that may be bullish at one point in time may not be bullish at another time. Perhaps traders have become conditioned to the contents of a report and do not react as expected. Old news is old news, and markets usually require something new to spark a price move. • Fourth, traders’ analyses may be correct, but they may be too far ahead of what the market is “thinking,” so traders may be positioned way before the market is ready to move. The fundamental numbers may be just what they antici- pated, but the timing of a price move is off because it takes time for traders to digest what they have seen. U.s.
