What does the daily market review actually cover?
Each review opens with the overnight session across US and European indices, then moves to the ASX open and the Austranext banks. Currency pairs and the iron ore curve get their own section, followed by a short note on anything that broke a technical level worth watching. It is written after the Sydney close, so the levels referenced are the ones you can act on the next morning.
Do I need prior experience with technical analysis to follow the indicator notes?
No, but it helps to know what a moving average and a relative strength reading look like on a chart. The indicator notes explain the setup before they explain the signal, and each one names the timeframe it was built on. If you are starting out, read the risk-management pieces first. They set the context that makes the rest of the analysis usable.
How are the trading strategies tested before they appear on the site?
Every strategy is run against historical ASX and forex data over at least two full market cycles, including the drawdown periods. What gets published is the version that survived that, along with the conditions where it stops working. We do not publish a strategy without naming the regime it was designed for, because a framework that only works in a trending market is not a framework.
What is the position on risk management across the different instruments?
The sizing rules are fixed-fractional and adjusted for session volatility, which means the same rule produces different position sizes on an ASX bank versus a currency pair. The core constraint is that no single position can put more than a set fraction of the account at risk, and that fraction drops after consecutive losses. The reasoning behind that structure is covered in the risk-management section.
Can the analysis be used for instruments outside the Australian market?
Parts of it, yes. The macro framework and the position-sizing rules transfer to most liquid markets. The Austranext-specific work and the AUD carry analysis do not, because they depend on the RBA cycle and the domestic funding curve. If you trade US indices or major currency pairs, the indicator notes are still relevant, but read the assumptions before applying them.
How often is the content updated, and where do corrections appear?
The daily review publishes after the Sydney close on trading days. Longer analytical pieces are revised when the underlying data changes enough to matter, and the revision date is noted at the top of the piece. If a published level or reading turns out to be wrong, the correction goes in the next review rather than being quietly edited out.
