Global Macro Trading Using Fundamental And Technical Analysis

Often times when you tell someone that you are a global macro trader they will assume that you are a commodity trading advisor. The truth is that while they both share some similarities they are actually quite different. The typical commodity trading advisor will focus on the technical aspect of the markets as well as risk management with total disregard of the underlying trading instrument. This doesn’t make them a good or a bad investment it is just that a global macro trading firm uses a lot of other types of analysis.
