The market won't wait for slow news.

About

Fundamental market analyst across sell-side and buy-side trading desks since 2006, covering macro, rates, FX, equities and cross-asset market drivers. I also spent five years trading listed options and futures at a major investment bank. With a mathematical background, my work has always centered on fundamentals, event transmission and market reaction. I’ve been building what has now become MoveSurge since 2019 around that same framework. Technical analysis has never informed my work and will never be part of any product I build.

Getting the headline first isn’t enough. What should traders see next?

I ve worked around sell-side and buy-side trading desks since 2006, and one thing about financial news has always bothered me:

being fast is necessary, but being fast is not enough.

When breaking market news hits, what's the first thing you check before deciding it matters ?

I've been thinking about this a lot while building MoveSurge.

Getting the headline quickly is obviously useful, but I don't think the headline alone answers the real question.

Usually I want to know:

  • did the market actually react?

  • which instrument reacted first?

  • was the move meaningful or just noise?

  • which other companies/assets could be affected next?

  • is this a new catalyst or something the market already knew?
