That is called SLIPPAGE... BIG price move even faster than a second... hard even for the fastest server or computer to capture the order. At least better than the last time... using phone to place order

We have discussed this matter last time. That's why I never place PO again during important NEWS. Better wait and catch the next wave.

I can imagine the PANIC in NYSE now DJI already active and DROPPING like no end. :surprised The NEWS coming out might do more damage to US. That if more RED news coming out. If GREEN... we might see the BOTTOM price today. If RED... the BOTTOM price for CARRY TRADES might be DAYS from now. Just my opinion.

It is STRANGE to see UsdCad shooting UP and AudUsd dropping down right now. Doing the opposite of RED NFP data. OIL and GOLD price must be dropping perhaps... can someone check it out?

This is highly got to do with RISK AVERSION. Very important if trading CARRY TRADES... including all JPY pairs.

Thus, CARRY TRADES can't go much lower. I think we might see the BOTTOM price for today. As long as OIL and GOLD are dropping... all JPY pairs might going UP a bit. Long term still BEARISH for USD

DJI still DROPPING!!! How are GOLD and OIL... if they stop from dropping... we might not see the bottom price for CARRY TRADES yet... Better SELL from Bounce rather than BUY from dip on JPY pairs now. LONG TERM... USD still gonna weaken. Just my opinion.

The dollar spiked higher versus the Canadian loonie as oil prices tumbled Friday morning. The greenback, which fell sharply against other majors Friday morning amid the release of dismal jobs data, jumped back above par versus the loonie for the first time since December 20.The dollar stood at exactly 100 Canadian cents shortly after 10 am ET, up from an early level near .9875.With traders betting on diminished demand from the US, light sweet crude for February delivery fell below $98, easing back from the $100 mark reached twice earlier this week.
I would call this DAMAGE CONTROL. USD should be SERIOUSLY weakening like mad already with that terrible NFP data. Just look at the figure... that is VERY VERY RED!!! Someone or some group must be seeing this already and can't allow USD tumbling down... this must be part of the DAMAGE CONTROL. They look for alternative to strengthen the GREENBACK. Very fishy... can you smell it?

I just sense this thing... just curious why that OIL and GOLD price must DROP during NFP? Why not some other time. Huhuhu....

Just my thinking... from my chart observation... lots of MANIPULATION on the markets lately... I could be wrong....

Next NFP could be minus... then we see US having RECESSION. That if the next NFP gonna be RED again.
