{quote} Will you leave this through NFP or you'll take it off just before (if price doesnt get there before then). Although I'm aware that for several months now NFP has been a 30-pip thing.
That order will stay active exclusively for potential NFP volatility..

Damn... Did you ever get the Porsche in the end?

But with that sort of ROI I'd guess you skipped the Porsche and went straight to Ferrari instead

To get an ROI like that you have to take extreme risk. To take extreme risk with a respectable account size means you're probably lacking knowledge in a key area. Losing 90-95% of your account in one trade can make you either revenge trade leading to bankrupcy or worse; or reflect and change the trading approach. I changed my approach. If I ever have a silly wager it will be with a micro-lot, if I ever have the desire for extreme risk then it is with £1 in a nano-account (it surprisingly easy to turn £1 into £10). My real trading is done by algos.

{quote} Just in case I already put a pending buy order to 1.1598 (based on magnetics) to scalp a potential bounce. New Pending Buy Limit: 1.1598 SL: 20 pips TP: 20 pips Stay Green
A wick grazed 1.15999 earlier so I don't know if you manually opened but I'm gonna follow with a small lot size (beer money) just to see.

New buy at 1.1603. Will BE asap before NFP.

Edit: SL at BE +0.7 pips to cover my broker's comission. Maybe it will retest 1.159x again or maybe it will bounce up to 1.162x who knows. Either way no risk to me - off for dinner. May my beer pay for itself tonight

Closed my short from yesterday with some profit, I don't wanna be in a full position when this news hits, although I do think it will catalyze the EURUSD downside move that I am expecting

Haven't opened since wasn't watching.. PO didn't trigger with 1 pip.. I might cancel if price retests earlier Aggressive BLUE TL breakout. If so I will start selling again.. This drop was supposed to happen at NFP and not now.. So plans can change..

Im not confident to enter the market with the actual price action going on, so I decided to start preparing my EU entry strategy for todays NFP release. While doing my research, I found some interesting correlations when comparing the actual ADP estimates (the data that is released a day before) and the official NFP Forecast. Turns out, that in 52.3 % of all cases since Dec. 2014, the actual released Data is in the opposite direction of the NFP forecast than the ADP number was from the forecast. In about 13.7 % of the cases, one of the releases was flat. Resulting in ADP only being 34% of the times correct, if only focusing on the question if the numbers are Above or below the Forecast.

Not sure yet how or if I will implement this data in my trading at all, but I thought it would be worthwhile sharing.

Cheers!
