Weekly Economic and Political Timeline - 4 November 2018

By Adam Lemon

Adam Lemon began his role at DailyForex in 2013 when he was brought in as an in-house Chief Analyst. Adam trades Forex, stocks and other instruments in his own account. Adam believes that it is very possible for retail traders/investors to secure a positive return over time provided they limit their risks, follow trends, and persevere through short-term losing streaks – provided only reputable brokerages are used. He has previously worked within financial markets over a 12-year period, including 6 years with Merrill Lynch.

This week is likely to see a similar level of activity to last week, with central bank input due for the U.S., Australian, and New Zealand Dollars. There will also be key data regarding the British Pound.
