Real agenda against the euro at the moment, 800 pip overdone drop & now attention seeking rating agencies jumping in. I think the markets are trying to price in QE from the ECB, even though don't appear ready to join the other money printing CB's

Hello,

I went long at 1.2958
I am trading against the trend but I have several reasons for that.
Most two obvious are:
1) Macd 240 min: price made new low, while Macd is just below zero
2) Macd 5 min - strong divergence

My stop is around 50 pip, and target is at 1.3089 (could be modified according market situation).

Happy trading,
Analyst

no never said it was

I don't always trade it either - it depends on the preceding play (days) and on my expectation of the results which I clearly publish beforehand along with my EU trade, but his comment was a complete generalization and deserved a pointed response
I finished for the weekend shortly after the NFP release so apologies for the delayed response.

When I underwent intensive forex training (presented by the famous Clive Arneil), it was impressed on everyone that it was wholly inadvisable for even experienced traders to attempt to trade at all on NFP days or for that matter, whenever there was a 'red flag' news release scheduled that directly impacted upon one half of the currency pair to be traded.

I still tend to follow that advice even after several years trading; however, I do sometimes make exceptions and today was one of them. There was strong speculation on Bloomberg and elsewhere amongst financial pundits that the NFP number today was going to be much better than forecast and so I took a chance on EU and GU by setting up shorts for both pairs with tight stops. With both pairs, shorting was in phase with the established daily trend.

I agree with Max - it's Ok to trade the NFP if you know what you're doing.
