trading volume impact on market

[jonsi72]

Does anyone know how large of a trade will make a noticeable impact on the market when you trade.

2 mini-contracts on euro/$ 1 mini on £/yen

joking of course
when central banks sell billions the price moves. At a minimum it would i would guesstimate to be in the hundred's of millions. Depends on time of day liquidity etc. A $5million ticket is nothing to the market. Volume $1.5T+ per day.

with 25-30 million $ go on USDPLN or EURPLN you'll impact the market to the like with a little help of some dealers who just long for such happenings. But the timing needs to be carefully selected.
