Following the Non-Farm Payroll (NFP) last Friday the 6th, the NFP was forecasted at 203k, we were looking for a deviation of 70k. The Actual figure came out at 160k which was way below, even though it did not reach our deviation trigger, while other supporting data to NFP came out unchanged. The unemployment rate remained at 5.0%  and the Average hourly earnings remained at 0.3%. My team and I were looking at all 3 events. A higher unemployment rate and a lower Average Hourly earnings would have fueled the greenback to sell off massively.
