NFP breakout, it's profitable!

with all my respect. i think you don´t know what you are talking about.

in the NFP, spread raise up to 10 pips or more, stop loss, take profit and pending orders can not always be respected due a extremely volatility and big gaps in price.

one thing is backtesting and other is trade the nfp in real.

the most probable it´s that you lose the two open orders.

i wish you a lot of luck and pips for your trading, but be careful.

best regards.

I don't post much, but feel I should on this threrad. This is a sure fire way to get whipsawed on NFP days. If you would have entered your orders as you suggested, you would have been in the market with a sell (using E/U as an example) prior to the announcement, then your buy fill would have had significant slippage so undoubtedly a bad day for you, hence the reason you have not posted your results.

How did u fare today ??
