Wonder how AK's deviation variance is today?
No idea. He must be having a July 4th blast with Mrs. Ak and the family.

Quite precisely they touched top channel line. Now, bears have a chance. Ofcourse trend is still up but it was good place to try short. 1.2744 it is important level for me (ABC). I don't think the line will be broken. It is possible touch 1.2744 and leave line alone.

.......... "that's how it is done" actually you are totally misinformed because that is how it has never been done and never will.
First of all I don't trade NFP. I leave that to the pro's to fleece the amateurs (who ever thinks they can beat the pros) which is you if you do think you can beat them with their tens of millions, hundreds of millions and in some cases billlions of dollars of leverage.

Second of all I do know how the NFP numbers are calculated and reported in modern times - which is at least the last 3 decades.

You on the other hand are clueless when it comes to this subject or this country's politics so why don't you stick the Tories/Labour/etc.

Its been a good trading week! I predicted earlier this week that 1.25 would be hit and so it was; my long term strategy focused on the Upwards trend the market experienced, that a lot of traders didn't see. My anticipating of the monthly pin bar/hammer would result in an bullish reversal has played out nicely for the latter part of the week. My short term strategy focused on that bearish intraday retracement move price has been stuck in for the most part of this week with great success.

Today I was focusing reversal bars, and was stopped out for 20 pips earlier during the London session, playing a bearish reversal Dark Cloud that didn't pan out for a loss of 20 pips. Quickly turned my focus on the new release which I anticipated Unemployment would be bad (was that really a surprise) but I knew Non Farm would turn out to be decent, which it was. A cancellation of new releases happened in which the market only moved 100 pip north, not the 150-200 pips many traders were expecting. I collected 100 pips on the up move and this afternoon, pocketed 40 pips on the retracement off the 1.26 level.

Happy weekend to everyone, see you Sunday.

I think when an entity starts buying the phones start ringing and before too long ideas of who is buying and how much they need and at what price spreads quickly. If a MM was looking for a dip to buy he may just jump in and buy based on that kind of info. To that extent there is 'control' .. they also love a good short squeeze (or long squeeze)

Great work, but do you really need to toot your own horn? I may be wrong, but I seem to remember you losing confidence or going flat in the middle of the week as we reached new lows. I can't remember the exact words used, but you said that it doesn't look like your expectations will play out. You may have even been looking for shorts?
Sorry mate, I believe you are referring to the wrong trader. I'm the guy thats always right!

Here you are my friend, you can check my posts this past week: Link1 Link2 Link3

My strategy is not a on trick pony. I trade long term and short term positions. My long term positions is a "buy and hold" method while my short term strategy is "daily swing" based. We've been short and long for the most part of the week while I've always held my overall long biased. I'm the one that said, 1.25 will be hit and advised the monthly pin bar reversing on whole number was a good indicator of a reversal, while many traders thought not. Check my past post. I try and post realtime on FF and Twitter. Heres my proof for my long term BUY and HOLD:

your thinking is very, very naive....the markets are free, as far as the public believes it. Few entities(the market makers) control commodity prices which can vastly affect the future performance of an economy. For example, when oil was above 120, consumers were cutting back on spending in other areas, ie paying their mortgages, buying non durable goods, and food. Could the fed have prevented the collapse in 08? absolutely....look how much free money was in the economy. Big Banks are borrowing from and inflated money supply at a zero cost to them, then they turn around and sell it to john q. taxpayer at a high price, then when john quits paying, the gov bails out the bank with john's own money he paid.....banks arent loosing, the public is. The banks and gov have created a system in which they will never allow themselves to loose. They are the only real winner. In other words they completely 100% control markets, theres no real "free market economy". The barriers to entry are much, much, much too high for the world financial markets to be actually free.
