i give up, you win moe
I was ahead; I told myself, its VERY USD POSITIVE no matter what the revision is saying. it is just a retrace. So I hanged on till it fully reverse for 20 pip loss.

Later I looked at the njumbers:

Bad Revision vs Good Current = Bad Revision as winner.

Buttom Line: COMPARE ALL NUMBERS CAREFULLY!!!!

I whacked myself hard afterwards.

I trully need a Trade Buddy here. Someone who can read the numbers and compare while I watch over the positions.... But my wife prefer to watch her soap operas.

I sure could use the extra set of Ears, Eyes, Hands and Brain... 30~60 seconds goes very fast when you are glued to the price action.

system is not doing a good job confirming this down trend so i might not get back in don't know whats going to happen i will wait to see if i get confirmation before i jump back in, im also willing to give up 30 pips if it keep telling me a down trend is comming, so don't do as i do unless your willing to take a loss, so lets see what happens from here. part of the system give and take. lets go dollar

Revision ruled the game again.

I guess with so much big revisions going on, traders are no longer trading the current data but the revisions.
not true, traders trade the actual number first but then traders trade revisions just like non farm

USD news seem to bull but there is a technical resistance due to oversold status.The 'possible' range of the news is 100 pips.
