For those who never traded during NFP.. its not uncommon price to whipsaw 100/20 pips little less or more in matter of seconds.. if you cant stomach that kind of movement just stay away.. " inactivity, not hypeactivy" is a winning strategy too, just my 2 cent

I totally agree with shadow, the pa is positioning.

Then there is this little thing that's about to break somwhere..

edit: (yes it's not the perfect triangle of trendline but the price has been following it for couple of hours)
You have some point there I'm currently looking at GU it is about to have a major drop. As for me I'm staying out at the sideline just cash in my earlier gains.

sell limit order @ 3942. Either it gets triggered or it doesn't. It has shown to be good resistance.

If I could vouch, i'd vouch for shadow , consistently giving us clear analysis and pretty much always spot on

This is one of those days where fundamentals and technicals match up. Anticipation to the NFP news, positioning to catch on the ride either way it goes.

Just 25 minutes to go...
The first few minutes will be wild, going both directions. And then the numbers will make it move. I'm bearish, but it's only a guess.

Just 15 minutes to go.....

I'm quite new to trading to the such important news.
What is your strategy, if I will place an SL and there will be a gap will my SL be hited?

What I see on the 4h is still a bull flag (downchannel) currently moving to the upper border. MACD is neutralilzing below 0.

I am not good at it either, but the best strategy for me - is not to trade during the news.
