Comments:
The S&P 500 and Nasdaq Composite closed at record highs on Thursday, in preparation for today’s NFP.

Healthcare and Materials were the worst performers and Financials was the best.

BTCUSD and ETHUSD both managed to gain a little yesterday and GBPUSD is still struggling around the 50MA but we might see a move in either direction as a result of DVY reaction to NFP today.

Stand aside, watch the fireworks and enjoy the show.

Happy prekend.

Let’s go trade!
