Stung!

True, just checking various live charts it shows on them all. Many thanks for your prompt responses. Much appreciated.

Try this site:
forexfactory.com

They also have a calendar that you can filter by currency.

myfxbook.com is also a good source.

It is not that uncommon actually. You had a trade open on one of the single most important and volatile economic reports.

The USD selloff leading up to the data release indicated (to me) that market sentiment was good for the dollar.

It is extremely important that you review each and every med-high impact economic report that is on the calendar before making any trades. I use forexfactory and the FXstreet calender’s.
