Trading the news is one of the easiest and most popular strategies on the Internet. Most of all, it is recommended to novice Forex traders, but many professional traders also trade the news. Its simplicity lures. What could be simpler? The trader looks through the economic calendar, chooses a highly volatile economic news, waits for its release, and then, trades according to the published data. If the rates are worse than expected, the trader sells the currency of the country, where the economic rate is negative and vice versa. However, even despite such simplicity, a trader can fail. The GBP / USD currency pair has always been considered one of the most difficult pairs to forecast, and April – May 2015 confirmed this.

DeMarker Indicator is the technical indicator matching current High with the previous Highs. For the first time the indicator was published in the book by Thomas DeMark called "The New Science of Technical Analysis".

In his book the author introduces indicator as overbought/oversold index with zones showing attenuation of price.
