This is the IFR lite version that is included for free inside my Oanda Live account. You have to login to retrieve the articles you want. I mainly just look for the Orders Board, to pick up the Barrier Options that are expiring at the next 10:00 AM NY Cut.
Prices tend to stick around expiring option prices, especially if they are large barriers. A large option might have a lot of protection if countertrend and after the NY cut @ 10am those positions are unwound so do the math
If you're going to trade currencies stick to the futures contracts are they are regulated and have a solid reputation. Other novices tend to use market makers which create a market by taking the opposite side of the trade and things such as volume are impossible to find as you are trading through your broker. There is lot's of argument between market makers being good or bad, their importance in the market place providing liquidity etc. Stick to one or two currencies at a time and try to stick to one paired with the USD, the EUR/USD will be the most liquid, and GBP/JPY tends to provide some good long swings.
