Revision increased the previous em 30%.

This is the catch. there's no credibility in NFP anymore. The credibility is in the revision, for THERE'S NO WAY 2-month earlier figure is going to be changed...

With the capacity of revising figures in 30%, I can run a country's economy, too..

The cable has produced nothing but whipsaw for the second NFP in a row... and having broken out of 10 days consolidation we have got stuck in another even tighter one, .. damn it

well, if nfp so far, made such a relative small impact on the pair what else can cause a real breakout?

Perhaps a nuke warhead missile targeting London? Anyway its just London... not enough to move this clousy sleeping cable

Market used good revision to jump back in the carries GJ and UJ. No one gave a rat's ass about GU.

"We US people (and our money), are the kings of the world...(btw if the world will exist after lol)"
It's election... perhaps gouvernement will try to control FeliX (FX) ?
But take care.. Felix is a cat :-)

This tima I was 100% aware about the revision. I was sure they were going to do that. So I went long to catch the first panic, jump off and wait for the revisions 30 min later.

Guess what?

Revision came with the figure...

Most likely this 97K today is a "little bit wrong" The figure was 160K... My bad, sorry"

Everytime a different rule... That's how it works.

[GBP/YEN] rocketed post data, putting on close to 150 ticks in 10 minutes with a big stop loss sell off also seeing Eur/Gbp plummeting to 0.6780. US Real money is said to be the Gbp rally with a surge in interest for yield now leading to key technical breaks across the board. Momentum is certainly positive and we would look for Gbp/Yen to provide an ongoing prop for the Pound. Sovereigns have also been active buyers into the mid 1.92's in Cable and whilst the Usd's post data gains are grabbing attention, the sustainability of such strength on data that is basically as forecast, seems doubtful.

Trust the f'n revision.

Revise 5% I can take. Revise 30%? Or the guys who calculate this are MORONS or there's bad faith in this stuff. No way they "missed" 30K in the last figure...

If they "missed" 30K again, this 97K can easily be 67K and that would change the whole landscape again...

Ah, whatever... This week well manage to kill me day after day..

I don't understand! How can they now say that the figure in Jan was 146k and not 111k, like it was stated before?? Thats fraud!?!?

Thats how they manipulate the market... or what?
The more and more I trade I begin to hate the capitalism! Fraud everywhere around...
