Google 'nonfarm payrolls'

Then do some reading

THEN and only then come back to trading.

it happened across a range of currency pairs; predominantly JPY or USD. TBH it was an unusal pattern, must have taken out a lot of stops - long and short...volatility went crazy, still not all bad news, great opps. later in the afternoon on most pairs...certainly on my seven/eight
