    The chart I'm guessing has a fixed y-range therefore the spread can't be properly represented with the chart. I did observe the eur/usd create the 25pip spread however, the chart maxes out at 15. The pound spread appears to have left the chart as well.

I hear this every NFP and it amazes me people don't know there platform will do.
    Know your broker? Yeah right, the rules all change each month.

    This NFP was no different than any other. Its simple: use the ideal broker, do not ever place straddles prior to the news, and follow along with market reaction. There's absolutely no reason not to make 30 to 50 pips quite safely. It takes patience and knowing when to execute. Do not blame your broker (except Oanda in this case) for you failing to have a successful egy. I hear this every NFP and it disturbs me people do not know how there platform will perform.
