I cannot for the life of me commit these and their effects on real rates, currency, and the BoP...... I also can't remember "traditional versus money model", and all that garabage.

Anybody know an easy way?

Ok when the Fed lowers the interest rate, it expands the money supply which leads to currency depreciation. There are two ways I remember this:
1) Expansion of money supply leads to inflation which depreciates a currency
2) If you picture a Supply/Demand graph, if supply shifts right and demand remains constant, price will decrease.

Then I remember that expansionary fiscal policy has the opposite end effect on currency (but not necessarily opposite effects on interest rates, NX, etc)
