Day 5 Recap: News Trading and Fundamental Analysis in Action
On July 24, 2025, at 7:30 PM (Philippine Time), GME Academy, in partnership with JDR Securities, hosted Day 5 of the 6-Day Forex Trading Workshop. By this point, participants had already learned the basics, mastered MT4, explored technicals, and unpacked fundamentals. Now it was time to see fundamentals come alive — through News Trading.
When News Hits, Markets React
Ms. Sachie Turiano opened the session with a reality check: “Charts don’t move randomly. News events and economic data drive those movements — and traders who understand this can react ahead of the crowd.”
She then guided participants through the essentials of news trading:
High-Impact News Events – Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP), CPI, PPI, GDP reports, and central bank announcements.
The Concept of “Priced In” – Why markets often move before or against expectations.
Volatility Management – How to handle whipsaws and sudden price spikes.
News Trading Strategies – Practical ways to trade or step aside when major data hits the market.

Why Day 5 Was Different
Unlike earlier sessions that built skills step by step, Day 5 showed the real pace of the market. Participants saw how sudden data releases can shift USD, EUR, or PHP in seconds.
The chat lit up with reactions as Ms. Sachie explained why the market sometimes “does the opposite of what you’d expect” — because traders were already pricing in expectations before the news dropped.
