Day Trading News Feed
I recently received the following question from a beginning day trader, asking which news feed I use when I am trading:
What do you use for current news feeds?
The answer is that I do not use a news feed. As a day trader making mostly day and swing trades, I do not trade fundamentals (earnings reports, financial news, etc.), so I do not need a news feed. I do like to know approximately when news is going to be released (hence the weekly economic calendar on the day trading site), but I do not pay any attention to what the news is, or how it is expected to affect the markets.
Further information about day trading during news releases can be found in the Trading During News Releases article, which discusses whether day traders should have active trades, or be flat (no active trades), just before and during financial news releases.
