nfp

any good systems for trading sept.nfp?

I am going to straddle it.

Be careful about straddling NFP. The market can react to the news quite choppy. You may get caught on both sides ending up with losses. Look at the example below and see how market reacted to the news. (April 07, 2006) The time on the chart is Central Europe you need to take away 6 hours to get the Eastern time.

Here is another example of how straddling could put you into trouble (Feb 3, 2006)

Aparsi,

do you know how often something like this happens though? roughly one out of every how many NFPs?
