Thread: How Did You Trade the NFP?

    I closed my positions and stood apart.

    In the End of the 5min. Candle immediately after the NFP Report, I entered Long in 1.3560. Prices stalled in the 55EMA, where I booked profits at 1.3590. Shortly afterwards (see: Murphy's Law) it broke resistance and pushed through 3600 and to 3620 resistance. I entered Brief there to get a fast retrace of 17 pips and booked profits.

    Complete a good day. Hindsight, I had been fortunate on the brief retrace place, since had it busted 3620, 3665 was following to the cards...

    Same here... understanding that the revision is critical on NFP.

    I had been long from 9860 area already, only added greatly by the first pullback at 9880

    Now was a moment that is non-trade. Far away. Played with some golf, watched the news and had lunch with your spouse.

    I took the position of not being at the market. Guess what, never missing a cent

    I don't commerce fundamentals. I exchange 4 hour charts and daily charts with 12 currency pairs. As a full time trader, I am specialized.

    That has been my strategy too, a 50% retrace of the primary spike that came outside to 9881. With the ho hum news I thought it might get 20 pips but wound up with 50.

    If I have learned anything... it's that I am no where near detached enough to play the news. I also stayed on the sidelines waiting for the dust to settle before I return into finish with a few pips in pocket!

    That is the best position to prevent from loosing money... Problem is that it prevents making it as well
