Hi All,

 

I like to trade on the news and have been using DailyFX News since. Since, I have had issues lately with one News Indicator based on DailyFX feeds, I have changed to Forex Factory. I have noticed that the news isn't complete as of DailyFX and Impact classifaction might differ from low to high which is quite... Well, in doubt I will go with the high impact mark ;)

 

e.g. 19:30 USD Initial Jobless Claims (AUG 14) on DailyFX Low / ForexFactory High

 

What are other good/comparable news sites?

 

Cheers

EU Refuses Bail-out Additional Funds

 

European Union again announced a new bail-out plans for countries affected by crisis. Previously, some countries ask for a nominal additional assistance disbursed to them, but the EU rejected the request. Instead, it asks the European Union countries who were hit by the crisis, such as Greece and Portugal, to immediately improve the system in the country. EU officials also acknowledge that today they are still trying to convince the investors about the stability of the Euro. Although it has attempted to tackle the crisis since 13 months ago, investors appear to still not believe in right to the strength of the Euro.

Yen has crept higher since the European authorities launched a phase of international intervention to weaken and stabilize the yen, but the BoJ is ready to sell the yen again if the dollar fell as low as Y81.25, a trader in Tokyo said on Friday.

The central bank has placed orders to buy the dollar against the yen at that level but the size of this order is not known, the trader added.
