you are exactly right. But that means the numbers are worthless if you DO NOT count those that stopped looking for work. They are still unemployed. Most estimates are the REAL ue rate is in the 11-12% range.

EURUSD

Unbelievable — These NFP numbers are so far off they cannot be believed anymore. Each month has gotten more and more ridiculous.

EURUSD

1.4400 I have read. And the expected yes vote on Greek bailout may push it higher.

EURUSD

That is true — My broker emailed me last week about it. New government rules in the USA.

EURUSD

Not again! — Thank god i'm not a scalper. This would be devestating. I have never had so many issues like this with a broker before.

CMSFX... down

A bad situation — And what makes it worse is I really like VT Trader and CMS has been a great broker for me for the past 4 years, but lately there have been more connection issues than I am comfortable with.

CMSFX... down

It's deja vu all over again — Not again? Same problem as yesterday. This is getting very annoying.

CMSFX... down

This does suck — I had an open long on euro this morning that I tried to close, but no response from cms, then it went down and nothing since about 10 am cst. I can understand the trading servers going down for a time, it has happened before. ...

CMSFX... down

I agree Petar, trend is up right now. I was a little late on my entry but got in at 1.6335.

Cable Update (GBPUSD)

OK, but I did to GrnEydGuy. I thought that's what you were responding to.

EURUSD

Yes, but this guy is the messiah and just by his presence all problems are solved.

EURUSD

True, but in December and even today I watched the euro/usd and usd/chf going up at the same time. Oil is dropping but cad gets stronger. Other forces at work too, but things are a little out of whack now.

EURUSD

Well normally, when the dow goes down, so does euro and yen. But lately the correlations that I have been accustomed to have not been the norm.

EURUSD

A good start — for president obama. Wall Street hits session lows after obama inauguration speech. From Oanda News via Thomson/Reuters

EURUSD

You're right! — People think Wall Street has been irresponsible, so let the government take over. Well, has there ever been a more irresponsible group dealing with finances than the government? The beginning of the end.

EURUSD

The rules changed when it became clear there was a distinct possibility that an african-american socialist could become president. Well, half african-american anyway.

EURUSD

You know it. I'm still in all 4 positions, just trailing them with my stop. When cable outpaces gbp/jpy all day it's almost historic.

EURUSD

I had the same problem yesterday pip smoker. Decoded to go to the 4 hr charts instead of scalping. Caught shorts on cable, gbp/jpy, euro, and long swissy. So I think it worked out! LOL

EURUSD

I read on Oanda news of an option strike at 1.2900 at the New York cut around 9 am EST. It could keep the euro above 1.29 until that time then it will get a direction.
