It's something that interests me. I keep an eye on global stock index futures, oil, currency and interest rate futures and it's easy to see how markets often react together. I doubt there would be much activity in the forum though because most posters here are pure chartists. Maybe a single thread in one of the existing forums would be better?
That would be an idea also... but I want to get traders to become more aware of the impact on global markets. Its definitely something more experienced traders will be informed about. New traders tend to get too caught up in whats happening in their market only and tend to dig for opportunities forcefully leading to poor setups and overtrading. It might be a good idea to get traders to expand their view of the markets and not limit themselves to trading just one particular area. The only reason I say this is because not until recently... I did not expand into various markets. But now that I am keeping an eye on various markets, my view of trading has changed tremendously. I'll wait and see if we can get more interest. Fixed income, interest rate futures, etc... is definitely not my area of expertise so would love to read about them.
