Welcome to a new episode of  Market Movers, presented by Lior Cohen of Trading NRG and Yohay Elam of Forex Crunch.You are welcome to listen, subscribe and  provide feedback.

  1. US jobless claims vs. USD: The weekly barometer of the US jobs market moves markets, but what is the real impact on the greenback? And which  currencies move most? We dive in.
  2. Yellen and the US hike: The Fed Chair was mostly busy fending off political questions, but was she really trying to get market markets to sleep? We try to find the message,  discuss the state of the US economy and talk about the upcoming US rate hike.
  3. Greece to the  back burner: The Greek list of reforms has been approved despite doubts, and the four month extension is underway. We  do a catch up and explain why this story will come back sooner than later.
  4. Australian rate decision: The RBA cut once but will it do it again and send AUD/USD to 0.75? We have a clear opinion.
  5. Canadian rate decision: The same question goes for the Bank of Canada, but here the answer goes to the other direction.

Yohay Elam: Founder, Writer and Editor I have been into forex trading for over 5 years, and I share the experience that I have and the knowledge that I've accumulated. After taking a short course about forex. Like many forex traders, I've earned a significant share of my knowledge the hard way. Macroeconomics, the impact of news on the ever-moving currency markets and trading psychology have always fascinated me. Before founding Forex Crunch, I've worked as a programmer in various hi-tech companies. I have a B. Sc. in Computer Science from Ben Gurion University. Given this background, forex software has a relatively bigger share in the posts.
