L’idée en termes simples

Some events matter for the chart: an interest-rate decision, a jobs report, an earnings release. A vertical line lets you see what the price did before and after.

Comment l’utiliser

  • Mark scheduled news to avoid trading right before it.
  • Mark the start of a move to measure its duration.

Tirer des conclusions

  • Compare the behaviour before and after the line.

Exemple

A vertical line at 12:30 UTC on a US jobs-report day shows EURUSD jumping 60 pips in the next five minutes.
