Professional Forex traders have long known that trading currencies requires looking beyond the world of Forex trading. The fact is that currencies are moved by many factors - supply and demand, politics, interest rates, economic growth, and so on. More specifically, since economic growth and exports are directly related to a country’s domestic industry, it is natural for some currencies to be heavily correlated with commodity prices. MMF Solutions blog gives you detailed description about the forex trading tips.

i did not understand how to use forex factory .

Forex factory is website in which you can see the economic data calendar… Means you can see which data coming at what time…
Housing data will effect on copper and gold… It reflect that how many house started to build (copper will effect) and how many were sold (gold will effect)…
