The Cornerstones of Forex Fundamentals
1. Interest Rates: Central banks set interest rates, which have a significant influence on currency values. Higher interest rates in a country can attract foreign capital, boosting the value of its currency.
2. Economic Indicators: Economic data releases, such as GDP, employment figures, and inflation rates, provide insights into a country's economic health. Positive data can lead to a stronger currency, while negative data may weaken it.
3. Political Stability and Economic Performance: Political stability and the overall health of an economy play a crucial role in currency valuation. Countries with stable governments and strong economic performance tend to have stronger currencies.

As an intraday trader, my main focus is on the speculation of "the next daily candle". However, I first analyze and project on "the next weekly candle". Each weekly candle is broken into 5 individual daily candles, and each daily candle is broken down into 3 main market sessions - namely, Asia, London & New York Session.
You'll find that my main focus in this lesson is on the day in which you find a lower / upper wick being created on the weekly candle. More often than not, "Tuesday" typically forms the low of a bullish weekly candle, and the high of a bearish weekly candle.
I encourage you to mark out the Open of your week, and highlight the swing point on the Tuesday of each week. I promise, you'll start implementing the "Element of Time" in your trading toolbox.
Of course this is not a standalone tool, however is helps greatly with the determination of your weekly directional bias. It will also assist with your trade and risk management.
It is to up to you to put the work in and infer whatever information you can from this little teaser of an illustration.
