to the guy asking about gold look below. gold will more then likely go up. basicly because of this hording. i would consider this when it comes to price. peeling back the layers, i ask myself "why would they do this?" i have an opinion but its not the same as what they say. i say a little safety valve maybe ect. but consider this since anouncement gold is flat. so gold being flat (since anounced) is this an indication of dollar strength? i dont know but by cutting supply it would seem gold would go higher with this e-z opec type action comparible to dollar. is hording the gold a way to artificially devalue dollar to keep euro currency stable. did white house call trichet ect. and warn them ahead of nfp release?

hey guys, forgive me but i know less than nothing about fundamentals.... the numbers that just came out for the CAD:

Employment Change -44.5K
Unemployment Rate 8.6%

Aren't they more or less measuring the same thing? Why was the unemployment rate quite stable, but the employment change way out?

Thats just indecision, I wouldn't pay too much attention to it until the NFP announcement in an hour.

People are sitting on their hands.

1044 GMT [Dow Jones] The market seems to be gearing itself up for a better-than-expected payrolls print, with JPMorgan and Barclays Capital looking for a 275K print, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley seeing a 250K figure and Deutsche Bank at 150K, notes a trader. Against this the DJN consensus is for a 275K decline while the Bloomberg survey is for 325K job losses. July's NFP hits the wires at 1230 GMT. (GST)


Maybe this is why. Looks to be some optimism there.

This may be a silly question, but why watch it for so long?

I placed my trades yesterday, just waiting for the impact from the news this morning.

wait for 10 15 min after news before entering..you can watch spread.. when it gets back to normal things are usually settled out..

Place your trade with a very tight stop loss. Otherwise I'm not sure I'd be in a trade until after the news, then play the reaction.
To each his own though.
