This is how reinstating orders by dealing desk looks like.

There was an error spike on Gilts and after my intervention they brought back my orders.

At least they admitted their error and rectified it. That would have been frustrating for you R. :-)

Yep, it just looked unnatural and I checked other data feeds.

Otherwise I am preparing mentally for eventuality of maximum 4 months drawdowns (as per your simulation). January was first month with negative result for Harington.

What was the forecast? How real numbers differ from it?
Should I go long or short dollar on these numbers? But Average pay number did not increase....on the other hand number of new jobs was highest in 2 years!

Me now:

Oh, NFP is today? Let the mass hysteria begin and move as it wants. Hopefully in direction of established trends....

Hi A

Strong sells at the moment with significant momentum behind them. We try and stay away from the forecasting game mate and just trade what is delivered by the market.

I hope all is ok :-)
