The second round of the French Presidential Election takes place Sunday, with the result expected before the start of trading in Australia and Asia Monday. In this webinar, Valentin Aufrand of dailyfx.com/francais and I discuss how to trade the Euro and the CAC 40, the main Paris stock-market index, around election day.
Our key message: don’t leave positions open as prices are likely to move sharply in either direction when the result is known.
