{quote} Well, I have to agree that despite fundamentals that should be more than supportive to US$, bulls seem to have resumed control as of now.
I often witness that behavior, when this thing wants to go in one direction any contrarian news is often just a trap.
I could bet a beer that if tomorrow NFP numbers are good we will see again a spike downward before new highs are printed.

Bulls failed to take eurusd to 1.1000 or some higher today but the bigger lossers where the bears which actualy managed to keep it below 1.0972 until now and surprisingly they didn't make it to lower prices because the market may be taking a cautious approach and waiting for further confirmation of the labor market's strength before making any significant moves. Lets hope all to go well!

It will be interesting to learn what tomorrow's NFP data will bring and how traders will respond to the data! Until the morning, have a great rest of the day!

15m Chart

Dodged the bullet on the negative impulse. (Stronger then expected, though it shouldn't with the good US data.)

Stop is BE, and if it washes out that is fine. Not willing to risk more downside. Agree that people are sidelined till tomorrow. Too many skeptical bulls.

Will hold the long, but if it washes out at Break even I will wait till after news tomorrow. Classically I don't trade NFP.

Good luck everyone!

Quick Thoughts for Friday's NFP

  1. I am noticing a breakout from the steep trendline, but bullish momentum was not enough to drag this higher.
  2. Until the hour of NFP we could see a drop to 1.0913 area (and with momentum maybe even to 1.0888) where I would eventually anticipate supportive pa.
  3. If a dip to mentioned levels happens, I would try to buy as low as I can. Then I would anticipate a rally towards 1.1002 area... Would we get there in the same day? I personally would say no... maybe next week...
  4. Another scenario would be a direct rise to 1.1002 area but again: from experience, I prefer to stick to my "first a drop then a rally" idea!

Best wishes

Possibly the price will continue to move within the Monthly Pivot / Daily Pivot channel until tomorrow at NFP time...
The price shown in the image below may be that of the start time.

EU lost some momentum, but still not out of the possibility to rise to 1.1000, support for that is at 1.0932/14 and 1.0892. A break lower opens the road to 1.0865/62 first. Resistance is at 1.0972 to the road of 1.1000/16 checkpoint. Good luck to all!

Daily volatility (range) - 99 pips

For now and based on H1, we must see if 1.0920/25 area acts supportive or not.. Waiting for London opening...

I would not write bulls off yet.
1.0880 is strong support and there are reversal patterns forming. Once that support is taken out then even 1.07 is fair game.

that is defintely wise to avoid non-farm as it is kind of like gambling. If we follow the same way as ADP we should see 0880 or even 0860. 0860 final gate to me

agree with you!

Here is a joke while waiting!

Why did the trader cross the road? To avoid the volatility of the NFP release!

Trading can be intense and tiring, so it's important to take breaks and recharge!

Bouncing as it should, if price comes back down it will be to test 1.0880.
