That's why I stated previously to stay out until after the news. You need to look at the news that was released at or near the same time:

  1. Nonfarm Prod = .2% better than expected
  2. Jobless = 25K worse

Looks like Nonfarm was more important to the market. Generally, when it comes to news, I stay out and place ordres around the consolidation. I showed a triangle earlier (before the news) that showed a perfect support and resistance. Place orders (pending) around the support and resistance. Since it was a decending triangle, the market is in a bearish mood, you should have placed larger orders on the downside than the upside. The market, as expected, plunged through the support. See below:

you should short it now the gold is pulling AUD down better than EUR, plus we due for some data and speeches from US so far bad and good data for US turned into Strength... I don't know why, and i don't wanna dwell on it , just profit good luck

GOLD IS SINKING HARD in past hour and we another 15 min to go and it made a RED 20+ dollar leg

1. The News. Thought it was a good entry point regardless of the news.

2. The AUD has shown tremendous resiliency here lately. It will fight it's way back up again.

I wouldn't be so quick on long trigger not until we see 8735 be broken or not... so patience will be most wise choice

I might just exit and take the loss

May bee I will double my position and see what happens. That worked out well for me the last week; down over 100 PIPS twice and managed to get a fairly good profit out of it.

I changed my trading strategy at the beginning of the year. before I entered a position at 4 Lots. Now I enter with 2 Lots. It has worked out very well for my last month. More maneuvering room and less stress.
there will be bounce back up so you can take a smaller loss, if you stay patient, it's not gonna shoot down, well at least from my experience, i have taken bigger losses when I could of taken smaller...
NEVER DOUBLE, WORST THING TO DO MOST OF THE TIME, don't count the time you got lucky bro... take smaller loss instead of huge

8710 doesn't want to give aaway to bears so we gonna retrace back a bit before another try to south, possibly buy stops with profit taking acitivity will push us up before initial drop
