From my experience with HFM, most of these prizes are real, since for a broker it's basically a marketing expense. But the conditions matter much more than the advertised prize. If a contest requires huge trading volume or encourages excessive leverage, traders might end up paying for those rewards through spreads and commissions anyway. I'd definitely check the withdrawal conditions and previous winners before participating

HFM Demo trading is definitely useful for learning how orders work and testing a strategy, but I think the psychological side changes a lot once real money is involved. Even a small live account can teach things that demo trading doesn't, like dealing with losses without changing your plan. Another important part is tracking results over enough trades to know whether your strategy actually has an edge, rather than just benefiting from a few lucky setups

Date: 11th November 2026. Waller’s Warning and Hot Inflation Rattle Markets: Is a 0.50% Hike Coming? The Federal Open Market Committee member, Christopher Waller, rattled markets on Tuesday, while high inflation figures added to investors’ concerns. The US Dollar Index rose 0.70% before retracing, and Gold fell more than 2.50%. The Federal Reserve Governor, Christopher Waller, spoke at the Bank of England’s Watchers’ Conference in London. Mr Waller is known to be one of the more senior members of the committee and sounded considerably more hawkish than markets had priced into monetary policy. Adding to the hawkish tone was the latest Consumer Price Index, which saw inflation rise above expectations. As a result, markets are erasing any possibility of a pause in December and are even considering a larger hike. Speaking at the Bank of England’s Watchers’ Conference, Mr Waller told journalists that if inflation came in as per market expectations, he would vote for a 0.25 percentage point rate hike. At the time, almost 75% of the market was pricing in a quarter-percentage-point rate hike. For this reason, this comment did not create significant volatility. However, as the governor continued, he also stated that if inflation rose above expectations, particularly core CPI figures, he would deem a 0.50 percentage point hike appropriate. At the time, the market was not considering any possibility of a larger rate hike. This comment came as a particular shock to the market. Waller expressed concern about persistent price pressures, particularly across services, energy, and AI-related goods. He described economic growth as healthy and the labour market as stable, giving the Fed room to tighten monetary policy. The Federal Reserve has not adjusted interest rates by 0.50 percentage points in almost four years. According to the Chicago Exchange, the market now deems a 0.25 percentage point hike an 85% possibility and a larger hike as a 15% possibility. The consensus remains for a 0.25 percentage point hike, but the market now believes the Fed will be more hawkish over the next three months. For example, a 0.25 percentage point hike in December with a further hike in January. US inflation rose more than expected in October, increasing concerns about persistent price pressures. This is particularly important as the inflation figures followed the hawkish comments from Christopher Waller. The Consumer Price Index increased by 0.4% month-on-month, exceeding economists’ expectations of 0.3%, although it slowed from September’s 0.6% increase. Core inflation, which excludes food and energy, rose by 0.3%, also exceeding forecasts. Higher housing, food, and energy costs contributed to the increase, with food prices rising 0.5% and energy prices climbing 0.7%. Economists estimate that annual inflation is now at 4.00%, double the target of the Federal Reserve. Demand for the US Dollar increased significantly as investors shifted capital away from bonds, Gold and other assets in favour of the currency. The US Dollar Index also continues to gain during this morning’s Asian session and remains the best-performing currency of the day. HFM - US Dollar Index 4-Hour Chart The USD/JPY is one of the currency pairs which are under considerable pressure, as the interest rate difference between the Fed and Bank of Japan are likely to start widening again. The USD/JPY is showing signs of short-term exhaustion following its recent rally. However, there is no sign of the trend reversing back down towards 158.000. A breakout above 158.920 and 158.940 will significantly strengthen bullish indications. On the daily timeframe, USD/JPY continues to demonstrate a bullish structure, trading above its 20-day and 50-day moving averages. The RSI is near 56, indicating positive momentum without reaching traditional overbought territory. The next significant resistance area lies around 159.00–159.20, followed by the psychological 160.00 level. A key level for the currency pair as the price increases will be the 159.745, which is a key resistance level and the psychological price of 160.000. The price of the Gold was falling throughout all sessions on Tuesday but gained momentum after Mr Waller’s comments and the CPI release. Currently, the indications are no longer pointing towards a downward price movement despite fundamentals turning negative for Gold. Gold on Wednesday has so far risen 0.75%, but remains below the previous day’s average, which was at $4,046.79. The price structure on Wednesday remains stable so far, with Gold rising and forming clear higher highs and higher lows. The price is also trading above all moving averages and above the day’s VWAP. HFM - Gold 1-Hour Chart On the 5-minute timeframe, the only bearish signal is the divergence of most oscillators, which is pointing towards the upward price movement being fragile. This would also be in line with the fundamentals. However, in order for technical indicators and price action to turn bearish, the price must fall below $4,040.00 at a minimum. At this point, the price will break below the 200-period moving average and below key price levels. Fed Governor Christopher Waller signals that a larger 50-basis-point rate hike could be appropriate if inflation remains elevated. October’s CPI rises by 0.4%, above forecasts of 0.3%, increasing concerns about persistent inflationary pressures. Markets now price in an 85% probability of a 0.25% hike and a 15% chance of a larger 50-basis-point hike. The US Dollar Index rises 0.70% while Gold falls more than 2.50%, as investors react to inflation data and expectations of tighter monetary policy. Always trade with strict risk management.

Fundamental Market Analysis for November 11, 2026 EURUSD EURUSD: The Freshforex birthday celebration continues! To celebrate our 22nd anniversary, we are offering: Swap-free trading until November 15! A 220% drawdown bonus from $220! Double cashback — up to $40 per lot! For the euro, the main counterweight to the strong US dollar remains the ECB's readiness to curb inflation. On Tuesday, Joachim Nagel stated there were solid grounds for raising rates in December. However, Philip Lane linked further decisions to the pass-through of energy costs into wages and other prices. Such signals support the euro but do not imply a pre-agreed acceleration of tightening. American data provided a clearer signal: consumer prices rose by 0.4% month-on-month in October against an expected 0.3%. Christopher Waller also advocated for an FRS rate hike in December. The combination of data and statements strengthened demand for the dollar as investors revised their expectations for borrowing costs in the US. New reasons are now needed to weaken this argument. Part of the US advantage is already reflected in yesterday's pair decline, so extrapolating that magnitude onto Wednesday would be premature. Lower energy costs would support European business, and stronger ECB signals could help the euro recover. While the market revises US rates upward, the base scenario for EURUSD allows for further moderate declines.

EURUSD faces a new test: US inflation could dash hopes of a euro recovery The EURUSD pair is awaiting the release of US inflation data, with the rate currently standing at 1.1226. EURUSD forecast: key takeaways US CPI for October: projected at 3.9%, previously at 3.7% Core inflation is forecast at around 2.8% EURUSD forecast for 10 November 2026: 1.1150 Fundamental analysis The EURUSD forecast takes into account that the euro is attempting to hold its ground amid dollar weakness following the US midterm elections. However, strong US economic data and expectations of further Federal Reserve interest rate hikes are limiting the scope for a euro recovery. The dollar has stabilised ahead of the US inflation release. Following its recent decline, the US currency has entered a consolidation phase. Investors are awaiting October CPI data.

US inflation could deal another blow to XAGUSD: markets pause ahead of the CPI release Silver is still attempting to gain ground as investors await US inflation data, with prices currently hovering at 52.80 USD. Technical outlook On the D1 chart, XAGUSD prices have formed a Harami reversal pattern near the lower Bollinger Band and could extend their corrective wave as the pattern's signal plays out. Since XAGUSD remains within a descending channel, the target for the pullback is the 55.55 USD resistance level. US inflation expectations are preventing silver from strengthening and reversing the existing trend. Read more - Silver Forecast Attention!

Date: 10th November 2026. USD Decline Prompts Gold Rebound Ahead of Key CPI Release. The US Dollar Index saw a strong decline on Monday, falling from 102.08 to 101.48, supporting Gold. Gold prices rose to the $4,145.00 resistance level due to the decline in the Dollar and oil prices. However, the primary driver of the week is likely to remain the US Consumer Price Index (inflation rate). Markets expect a moderate increase for October’s inflation figures. The current expectations are that inflation will rise from 3.7% to 3.9%, almost double the Federal Reserve’s target. Over the past week, Gold’s prices have continued to improve after a record decline; however, inflation remains a key concern. NFP and Consumer Price Index Friday’s NFP report showed that the US economy added 165,000 jobs in October, significantly exceeding market expectations of 65,000. This marked a considerable improvement from September’s upwardly revised figure of 60,000 and was the highest figure in five months. Meanwhile, the unemployment rate declined from 4.2% to 4.1%, indicating continued resilience in the US labour market. Average hourly earnings increased by 0.4% month-on-month and 3.1% annually, suggesting that wage pressures remain present. Investors were particularly interested in the strong wage increase, as it is known to contribute to persistent inflation as consumer demand rises. At first, Gold fell moderately by 0.75%, but momentum failed and Gold was quick to rebound on Monday. However, if inflation comes in higher than market expectations, the Federal Reserve may become noticeably more hawkish over the next six months. As a result, Gold may witness renewed pressure, declining back to the $4,000 psychological level. In addition to the inflation rate, investors will also monitor the core Consumer Price Index, which investors expect to rise from 2.6% to 2.7%. The US Dollar Index and Oil Prices One of the key factors supporting Gold’s upward momentum is the weakening US Dollar. The US Dollar is weakening due to the decline in oil prices and easing Middle East tensions. Since Friday’s market close, the US Dollar Index has fallen by 0.68% and is now trading at a five-day low. This morning, Crude oil prices have fallen by a further 6% declining to their lowest level since late August. The decline in oil prices is also a positive factor for inflation and will impact the Fed’s interest rate guidance. This can also be positive for Gold, but in order to have a sustainable impact, oil prices will need to continue declining below $80 as a bare minimum. The lower oil prices fall, the more positive it will be for the Gold prices and the more negative for the US Dollar. However, this will largely depend on whether tensions continue to ease, which remains highly uncertain for now. If oil prices continue to decline further throughout the day, the inflation release may have a lesser impact. Gold (XAU/USD) - Technical Analysis and CPI Release If the US inflation rate and core Consumer Price Index both come in higher than the market’s expectations, the price of Gold may come under pressure and decline. However, traders should remain cautious, as prices could rebound later in the day, particularly if oil prices continue to decline. If the CPI releases come in 0.1% higher than expectations, the release will be deemed negative, but 0.2% higher could be particularly damaging. However, lower inflation could prompt stronger demand. This will also depend on the CPI release and whether the US Dollar Index also continues to remain weak. Gold's four-hour chart currently supports a cautiously bullish outlook, but the daily and weekly trends remain less convincing. The main challenge for buyers is to establish a sustained breakout above $4,150 and subsequently $4,200. On the smaller timeframes, bullish indications are likely to materialise as the price breaks above $4,127.70. HFM - Gold 30-Minute Chart Key Takeaways: Gold approaches $4,150 as the US Dollar and oil prices continue to decline. Markets expect US inflation to rise to 3.9%, potentially increasing pressure on the Federal Reserve. Stronger-than-expected NFP figures highlight continued resilience in the US labour market. A breakout above $4,150 could support further gains towards $4,200, while higher inflation could trigger renewed selling pressure. Always trade with strict risk management.

Brent at $90, WTI below $85. Where could the oil decline stop? On November 10, #BRENT fell to $90.42, and #WTI to $84.68 per barrel. In the previous session, Brent futures lost 5.85%, and WTI lost 4.38%. A new wave of selling began after Donald Trump stated that strikes on Iran are unlikely as long as negotiations are progressing. After meeting with the Prime Minister of Qatar on November 9, the US President confirmed that he currently sees no need to resume strikes. All four targets of our forecast from November 3 were met last week. #BRENT passed $103 and $100, and #WTI passed $95 and $94. Since then, both benchmarks have lost an additional $9+ per barrel. FreshForex's Birthday continues! In honor of our 22nd anniversary, we are giving: Swap-free trading until November 15! 220% drawdown bonus starting from $220! Double cashback — up to $40 per lot! Why oil continued to fall Last week, initial reports of Iran's contacts with Qatari mediators eased concerns about supply disruptions. Now Washington has publicly signaled its readiness to refrain from new strikes. The lower the probability of escalation, the less buyers are willing to pay a premium for the risk of export interruptions. An additional signal came from Iraq. The country's Foreign Minister announced an agreement with the US, which provides for transporting Iraqi oil through the Strait of Hormuz via a route along the coast of Oman. If tankers can regularly use this route, part of the supply will become more predictable. What could bring buyers back Trump stated that the US will maintain the maritime blockade of Iran. Meanwhile, reports continue to emerge from the Strait of Hormuz area regarding attacks on vessels. It is now important for the market whether tankers can pass through the strait regularly. New disruptions could quickly return part of the risk premium to the price. According to analysts FreshForex, the decline may continue if negotiations with Iran progress and flights of Iraqi tankers confirm that the agreement with the US is working. Then buyers will have fewer reasons to pay a premium for the risk of supply disruptions. Under such a scenario, by the end of the week, #BRENT could drop to the $87–88 per barrel range, and #WTI to $82–83. Only 5 days, remain to get 220% Drawdown Bonus upon depositing from $220!
