As you can see from todays dire German Industrial production numbers, the actual number is not relevant. It is just a catalyst for a pre determined move.

As SD puts it 'All news is already discounted in the market' or words to that effect.

think the bad weather has made the number hard to guess, how many jobs affected by snow storms,

"the market discounts all "known" information"

thats why if u find a year old newspaper and throw 10 darts into the page with stocks prices, that "portfolio" will beat 90% of hedge funds

alot of traders are predicting a sell off even if the numbers are good, should get interesting, I think either way we get a spike up then maybe further downwards.

u have both side covered,


you could 30 seconds before they release the number,

go long and short at same time and have a small stop loss. on each

How many is 'a lot', because 'a lot' of traders on here think its going up. Where is the number coming from?
