Honestly, I wouldn't look too deeply into it. Just be aware that news is largely rigged and misleading. All the analysts on TV and Internet have an agenda and Bloomberg and CNBC have no clue, they merely pass on this misinformation.
The absolute only way to accurately 'guess' what the big players are doing is to study the volumes being traded. Other than that, wait for a decent trend to materialise on the 15m TF and trade that direction off the 5m.

I assume you're aware of Tom Williams?
I tend to wait for a trend to happen on the daily, 5m, 15m are for entertainment, it's fun watching the price action hehe...

yeah tom williams, only from the VSA thread...any reading materials you recommend?

I don't make trade decisions with the 5m, 5m is for "entertainment" purpose only but I wanted to see how much pips moved "suddenly" right after the news...the bearish engulfing i mentioned was from the daily chart.

Scalping is crazy I think and I can't scalp to save my life so I end up waiting weeks for a right setup to happen and lately been trying to bring meaning to fundis...
NP. Understood. Btw, I don't know why you need to know that info but in general and as you probably already know if you are interested in volatility you can use ATR in a chart to tell you a better inside with a less subjective measure than 1 low liquidity bar on NFP . 70 pips was not that spectacular for a NFP move.

In any case good luck

If I could interject for one second. The best trading book I've read is Van Tharps 'Trade your way to Financial Freedom.'

i have all my shorts opened just yet!!!!. I reloaded on the the previous low of the week, i dont think we are passing that but im going to make a final attempt down, if it doesnt break 1.3640, then i will close all the shorts manually.

The same with gbp, reloaded i little bit earlier but with the same purpose, one last attempt today before closing everything RELOAD OF COURSE, NOT A NEW TRADE. OPENED AT 1.6163 TO EARLY.

maybe on 1-2 hr well see that movement, but i reaload now because i dont want to miss that last one

Youtube vids of him in action as well as some decent Tradeguider videos there. As for reading, the daddy of VSA is Master The Markets by Tom Williams.

people didnt lunch today, i guess we are making one last attempt sooner than i thought. im not going to be greedy, im just going to look for lower point today 5-10 before that, so i dont get cold. GOOD LUCK GUYS!!!!, rIGHT NOW IS A GOOD POINT TO ENTER, BECAUSE IS ALREADY MAKING THE TURN AROUND ON 15MIN ALSO, AND THATS GOOD!!!.

RECOMMENDATION: WAIT FOR THE 15MIN CANDLE TO CLOSE

For those who can, Plot your monthly average(preferably on H4) and tell what might happen next week. Not always easy making decisions in forex.
I like the quote "Reaction Not Prediction"

I have only been here for 5 minutes and had to update my iggy list already. Go figure.
I'm just the right age that I remember the Beatles first tour in America quite vividly. When they arrived in NY, there was a televised press conference.

Most questions were quite polite and intelligent, but then one snarky reporter asked "what are you going to do when the bubble bursts?"

Lennon leaned to the microphone and just said, "Count our money, mate."
