HI Pippin..
and other addicts...

Quiet market ahead of the market mover NFP. I wish those who have a position all the best! (daredevils....)
Maybe I'll pop in right after the figures. And maybe I'll forget since I have to do some ironing and babysitting............
If I have to make some sort of call.....Think the next 150 move from this 1,5560 is rather up then down.

Todays NFP is tough call. My call is a slightly better than expected NFP, but uneployment could rise above 5,6%

Sentiment is 67% traders are long and rest is short. It calls for corection and up afterwards (big MAYBE).

Wish all the best to everyone. Hope I will not overtrade it (as usaly)

Guilder hope you can make it. Same things are waiting on me in couple of months -> C'est la vie

Yes, it si a bit disapointing for those who went long. I am glad to see that there was support to keep us above 15500 at leat for the short term. I am not the best at technical analysis but I am thinking that this 15620 range should hold for the rest of the day which should keep most longs in play.

GLTA,
