Today the ADP report for Jobs showed very low growth rate in USA

also manufacturing was reported to be low

 

does the USA jobs news have any co-relation with the GBP/USD and EUR/USD ?

 

any explanations ?

US New Home Sales:
Thursday, 14:00. While offers of new homes shape just a minor piece of the aggregate market, each arrangement makes a more extensive cluster of monetary action and is very much corresponded with the more extensive economy. The annualized level of offers remained at 631K in June. A comparative number is on the cards now: 651K.

US Durable Goods Orders:
Friday, 12:30. This essential financial marker gives data to the Fed about speculation and long-haul moves in the economy. Feature orders ascended by just 0.8% in June as indicated by the last read. Center requests ticked up by 0.2%. We will now get the underlying evaluation for July, the main month of Q3. The considers additionally feed along with GDP. Feature orders are relied upon to drop by 0.3% while center requests convey desires for +0.5%.

I hope that this will help you out.

...Finally! Seven fkn years later (ie 2645 freakin’ days), SharetoLose gets around to posting some fake numbers and narratives to edify  rforexdad... Unfortunately it's not on topic.. and certainly no  “co-relation with the GBP/USD and EUR/USD” was explained  ... I dope but doubt that this will help him or her out now ...

you're not a pessimist.

now here is a  pessimist

If Germany descends into internal turmoil without a coherent government to push the Italys and Hungarys around, European populists/nationalists will fill the resulting vacuum. Borders will be re-imposed within and without the EU, national government budgets – already above EU deficit limits in many cases – will explode. Already-debilitating debts will keep rising, and the ECB will be forced to bail out Italy for sure and probably several other member states after that.

Since an ECB bailout of the Italian banking system means, in effect, moving Italy’s debt onto Germany’s balance sheet, the world’s one remaining rock-solid credit will join the ranks of politically unstable, increasingly indebted countries that may or may not be able to avoid financial collapse.

The end-game? A euro devaluation will be imposed by the global currency markets or announced preemptively on some future Sunday night by Merkel’s successor (assuming there is one).

The descent of the world’s second most important currency from reserve asset to modern day Italian lira will raise a lot of questions, including:

·         Should we all buy the US dollar because it’s the only sound currency left?

·         Should we dump dollars because the US is really not that different from Europe in terms of financial mismanagement and political incoherence?

·         Should we dispense with the whole fiat currency thing and go back to sound money that requires politicians and central bankers to live within their means?

·         Should we dispense with the whole “constitutional democracy” thing and hand over control to a leader who’s strong enough to put things right?

These four options seem about equally plausible at the moment. But the worlds they’ll create couldn’t be more different.

Somebody needs to post something mean about zdo resurrecting such an old dead thread :stick out tongue:

btw, my third best automation contract this last month was ECZ18...  was surprising in that several other instruments on automation had much more intraday travel this month (except of course for nq and ym - the 'winners' ) than the EC ... turns out that travel factor was overcome by strings of nice clean signals almost all month long

System runs all day and all night

Setups on 40 minute bars, triggers on 220 tick bars...

the instrument is relatively thin but it is amenable to dynamic sizing

 

repost...

Anyone have an assessment of the outcomes for the EU and GB of a hard/no 'deal' exit ?  .  For example, I'm having trouble understanding how all important trade would necessarily just suddenly stop, etc... thx

I’m the only one asking these questions?  No...  and I’m not the only one thinking if it took Czechoslovakia six freakin months to separate, why is GB ‘separating’ from the EU slated to take up to 6 freakin years?  Even better time comparisons could be drawn for breaking up the whole dam soviet empire.  So which one, GB or EU, is providing the snags and drag?

    • Be careful who you blame.   I can tell you one thing for sure.   Effective traders don’t blame others when things start to go wrong.   You can hang onto your tendency to play the victim, or the martyr… but if you want to achieve in trading, you have to be prepared to take responsibility.   People assign reasons to outcomes, whether based on internal or external factors.   When traders face losses, it's common for them to blame bad luck, poor advice, or other external factors, rather than reflecting on their own personal attributes like arrogance, fear, or greed.   This is a challenging lesson to grasp in your trading journey, but one that holds immense value.   This is called attribution theory. Taking responsibility for your actions is the key to improving your trading skills. Pause and ask yourself - What role did I play in my financial decisions?   After all, you were the one who listened to that source, and decided to act on that trade based on the rumour. Attributing results solely to external circumstances is what is known as having an ‘external locus of control’.   It's a concept coined by psychologist Julian Rotter in 1954. A trader with an external locus of control might say, "I made a profit because the markets are currently favourable."   Instead, strive to develop an "internal locus of control" and take ownership of your actions.   Assume that all trading results are within your realm of responsibility and actively seek ways to improve your own behaviour.   This is the fastest route to enhancing your trading abilities. A trader with an internal locus of control might proudly state, "My equity curve is rising because I am a disciplined trader who faithfully follows my trading plan."

    • SELF IMPROVEMENT.   The whole self-help industry began when Dale Carnegie published How to Win Friends and Influence People in 1936. Then came other classics like Think And Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, Awaken the Giant Within by Tony Robbins toward the end of the century.   Today, teaching people how to improve themselves is a business. A pure ruthless business where some people sell utter bullshit.   There are broke Instagrammers and YouTubers with literally no solid background teaching men how to be attractive to women, how to begin a start-up, how to become successful — most of these guys speaking nothing more than hollow motivational words and cliche stuff. They waste your time. Some of these people who present themselves as hugely successful also give talks and write books.   There are so many books on financial advice, self-improvement, love, etc and some people actually try to read them. They are a waste of time, mostly.   When you start reading a dozen books on finance you realize that they all say the same stuff.   You are not going to live forever in the learning phase. Don't procrastinate by reading bull-shit or the same good knowledge in 10 books. What we ought to do is choose wisely.   Yes. A good book can change your life, given you do what it asks you to do.   All the books I have named up to now are worthy of reading. Tim Ferriss, Simon Sinek, Robert Greene — these guys are worthy of reading. These guys teach what others don't. Their books are unique and actually, come from relevant and successful people.   When Richard Branson writes a book about entrepreneurship, go read it. Every line in that book is said by one of the greatest entrepreneurs of our time.   When a Chinese millionaire( he claims to be) Youtuber who releases a video titled “Why reading books keeps you broke” and a year later another one “My recommendation of books for grand success” you should be wise to tell him to jump from Victoria Falls.   These self-improvement gurus sell you delusions.   They say they have those little tricks that only they know that if you use, everything in your life will be perfect. Those little tricks. We are just “making of a to-do-list before sleeping” away from becoming the next Bill Gates.   There are no little tricks.   There is no success-mantra.   Self-improvement is a trap for 99% of the people. You can't do that unless you are very, very strong.   If you are looking for easy ways, you will only keep wasting your time forgetting that your time on this planet is limited, as alive humans that is.   Also, I feel that people who claim to read like a book a day or promote it are idiots. You retain nothing. When you do read a good book, you read slow, sometimes a whole paragraph, again and again, dwelling on it, trying to internalize its knowledge. You try to understand. You think. It takes time.   It's better to read a good book 10 times than 1000 stupid ones.   So be choosy. Read from the guys who actually know something, not some wannabe ‘influencers’.   Edit: Think And Grow Rich was written as a result of a project assigned to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie(the 2nd richest man in recent history). He was asked to study the most successful people on the planet and document which characteristics made them great. He did extensive work in studying hundreds of the most successful people of that time. The result was that little book.   Nowadays some people just study Instagram algorithms and think of themselves as a Dale Carnegie or Anthony Robbins.
