My humble EU outlook for NFP today.

After good ADP numbers, I believe we will only have massive changes in EU with overshoot or massive flop. I am aware that ADP and NFP do not always correlate but good NFP numbers seem to support high probability on June hikes which will push USD up

yeah. that guy sure had some liberal views. feed the hungry, clothe/shelter/sick help. kinda radical in the time going against the establishment. back then they were casting stones etc. he indicated it wasn't their place to judge.. he had some real followers who gave up all their possessions. boats, nets ect. not too many of those real followers around.. but i often see the wanna be hypocrite..

{quote}https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coal_m..._United_States everybody sucks up to coal because that's what you do if you're looking for votes in WVA. But everybody who can recognize a fact knows coal is a dying industry in the US, and that has only to do with one thing: not Obama or the War on Coal or liberals or Paris or anything except the onset of cheaper natural gas over the last 5 years or so. The number of people employed in coal extraction has m/l halved in the last 5 years and why? cheap natural gas. There is nothing...
coal (except metallurgical coal) is going the way with horse and buggy as long as NG is cheaper. Trump and other have just gave those regions false hope. they should be retraining those workers for something else. coal is not economically viable compared to NG in the u.s. Those Jobs are gone..

Interesting the "The Fool" ignores me 8 minutes ago. I posted two videos 20 mins ago which take at least 42 minutes to watch. Or perhaps you have seen them before and just don't like an opposing opinion.
Anyway if the cap fits ...."The Fool" how apt. I hope you live near a beach, it makes burying your head in the sand so much easier.

Climate change is an industry like any other. It has to be sold, for that it needs bullshitting salesman no different than pushing Cheerios or Ford Cars.

This thread is really becoming useless at giant steps.

My NFP play today more or less. I don't think we will either resume or change the trend with today NFP, but a good chance for positioning for the rates play is in my mind.

. Hopes for This Thread Just a place to share a little about our methods and discuss what is and isnt workingyour strengths and weaknesses, etc. Hopefully a few seasoned people join in, and through the beg, borrow or steal methoder, collaborationwe can all pick up a few gems from one another to improve our own methods. No need to give away the whole farmyour edge, so to speakthough. Share as much, or as little as you like. Contribute what you cantake away what you like. I also find I get asked the same questions quite often. I often find it a pain...

Read the O.P.'s first post. Especially rules of the thread. It seems some have taken it upon themselves to steer and police this place by threatening and implementing CoC for no other reason, other than some people having opposing views.
It is very hypocritical, very senior members here have made comparison of a certain political figure to Hitler but that goes under the radar, don't abuse your seniority to only permit your own views.

For what reason ? Because many of the the "NEW" regulars just don't like any other narrative than what is largely pushed here ?

It says much about the character of you people who choose to ignore the views of others. The most recent resident Guru taking the lambs private. Hilarious. They guy says enough to cover all the bases of what can happen. When questioned about his "I'll take that" comment after never committing in black and white one way or the other he spits his dummy out. How dare anyone question him.

At least you are specific with your trade posting.

EDIT: I see you edited your post by adding " By Harassing Sissy". I've never harassed the guy. His fundamental talk means nothing to me, he says a lot and is deliberately ambiguous to cover himself/herself. He thinks that should be the sole focus of the thread. That was not what this thread was about. He/she has strong views about Trump and Brexit etc and thinks only his/her views are valid. I'm sorry democracy doesn't work that way.

not in the least. even the friendly of us have different views. all of us get poked, that's part of the social game. the main focus is trading. yes, we go off course time to time. it's not the place to do it. it's not a good trading environment to talk religion or much politics. thats nearly impossible at times when the politics will affect the trade.
