Hi there :)

This is Crazy Cat with a potentially profitable trading opportunity...

Friday, May 007 (8:30 am New York Time) USA

We have US NonFarm Employment Change coming out. It is expected to read 175. Last month it read 162.

I recommend trading USD/JPY for this report.

Please read what this indicator means and how it affects the USD/JPY by going to this link: https://www.forexpeacearmy.com/fore...ptions/7400-us-nonfarm-employment-change.html

The trigger for this indicator is 60. This means that if US NonFarm Employment Change comes out at +235 or better, USD/JPY will probably go up by 50 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report. If it comes out at 115 or less, USD/JPY will probably go down by 50 pips or more in the first 45 minutes of the report.

We will also have US Unemployment Rate and Revision coming out. A deviation of 0.2 on unemployment rate is considered significant but chances are good it will not conflict. Revision is also important and a significant conflict with revision number may mute the move greatly.

Obviously, the bigger the difference between expected and actual numbers, the bigger will be the move.

For example: on January 08th, US NonFarm Employment Change came out at -85, versus an expectation of 0, and USD/JPY went down by around 100 pips. See for yourself what happened by seeing this chart: Forex news trading currency exchange charts

I hope you make some money on this report.

Guys, for the sake of my forex education (and my sanity) could someone explain what happened today and why ? And is this a rare occurrence or should we take Felix's predictions with a pinch of salt ? I would love to trade this sort of thing regularly but if these news events are statistically very hit and miss I'll give them up. Anybody with experience of these signals pls can you comment.
