Market sentiment is defined by investors’ attitude towards the financial market or a particular security. What people feel and how this makes them behave in Forex market is the concept behind  market sentiment.

 

The importance of understanding the opinions of a group of people on a specific topic cannot be underestimated. For each purpose sentiment analysis can offer insight that is valuable and helps to make right decisions.

 

All traders have their own opinions about the market movement, and their thoughts and opinions which are directly reflected in their transactions help to form the overall sentiment of the market.

 

The market by itself is a very complex network made up of a number of individuals whose positions actually represent the sentiment of the market. However, you alone cannot make the market move to your favor; as a trader you have your opinion and expectations from the market but if you think that Euro will go up, and others do not think so, you cannot do anything about it.
