Does anyone plan on trading this news? If so do you think it will have the same results as last Fridays data.

the non-manufacturing survey usually has less impact then the manufacturing survey we got last week. but i expect a big move out of this report with the way the market has been reacting to US data lately. hold on to your hats
Relax and be happy.

If they number is greater than expected, do you see a miniature dollar rally? If the number falls within expectations do you see little movement? And if the number is like 50.something do you see a little rally? And if it falls below 50 a huge dollar selloff? What's your opinion on each of these situations?

From Reuters....

"The Institute for Supply Management's non-manufacturing survey, due at 10 a.m. (1500 GMT), is expected to show that the sector grew at a slower pace last month and could put the dollar back under broader selling that helped sterling to 14-year highs last week."

Yup, that was a good spike. Oh well, I prefer to be conservative one these things.

And I thought it would not even touch support at 1.9720.
I'm happy with 35 pips anyway. No need to get greedy, right?
