    Question - I want to trade on central banks monetary policy decisions (ie , Fomc, BoE, BoJ, ECB) what tradeable products are out there that are completely dependant on changes. So if the BoE goes from 5.25 to 5.00 how can I trade that?

    cheers.

    Im sorry about the handholding but I looked all over for a white papers that would add additional clarity but I cant find any...

    Could you describe exactly how to derive rate expectations for the ECB, BoJ and BoE? Perhaps just some basic math...???

    thnx,
    Mike
