For anyone interested, assuming NFP this year has been released on the first Friday of every month (I'm sure it has), the average trading range on days of NFP release is 136 pips( 61 pips the lowest & 225 pips the highest).

Based on ave. of 136 pips and current high and lows, this puts potential high for Euro today at 13000 and low at 12816, interestingly this is the same range that IG is saying.

Hi Pat,
I am always very wary of cluttering Flash's thread with other info than trades but he has assured me its fine if its trading related.
I use 3 monitors on one I have the one I am watching eg gbp/usd for all time frames from 1 week to 1 min for entry.
on the other one I have the correlated pairs like gbp/jpy ,gbp/aud etc.
so I can see if its generally strength of sterling or weakness of $ that is moving the price.
On my third monitor I have the other majors and the $ index.
I also have my spreadsheet that alerts me to possible entries audioably on my laptop.
I do post my entries from time to time on my thread but don't always get the time.
attached a screen shot of my setup if its any use and use.

How do you stream prices to your spreadsheet? mt4?

Yes,
I used a programmer to get it to be more user friendly

Closing off my eur/gbp for +6
not much and a small stake
The euro weakness seems to be across the board

I'll wait and see what's the reaction to the report - wouldn't trade before that

still believe it was a good entry point, but painful to watch no real movement... euro will probably be pushed up until 12.30
