News and Economic Data That Affect Forex Market Movements. The value of a country's currency is affected and largely influenced by various economic indicators that reflect how a country is performing. 

These are the ones that have a strong effect on currency value movements. 

Please note: It is important to know that trading over news events has increased risks due to the issue of liquidity around this time. 

If you set limit orders such as buy stops, sell stops etc. then the order will always be filled at a price being offered by our liquidity providers. This will more than likely lead to extreme levels of slippage on high impact data announcements where prices gap through the requested price between the price you expect and the execution price (the price when the FX trade is completed).
