Trading Nadex Into The News: Canadian Core Retail Sales October 22, 2014

At 8:30 AM, on Wednesday, October 22, Canada will release its Core Retail Sales Report. This report measures the change in the total value of sales at the retail level, not including automobiles for all of Canada. This is an important indicator as it reflects the amount of consumer spending which also indicates the pace of the Canadian economy. This report is released each month. Last month’s report was -0.6%. The forecast for Wednesday calls for a positive 0.3% reading. This should indicate to you, as a trader, to take a positive or bullish approach on the CAD side of your trade.

For this News Event, the suggested strategy is an Iron Condor performed using a Nadex Spread on the USD/CAD. Enter as early as 8:00 AM with an expiration of 10:00 AM giving the market some time to move to profit in your favor. You are looking for a profit of at least $30.
