The ‘Slingshot’ Strategy
This strategy looks to capitalize on the mayhem that may ensue during an especially strong print. In this strategy, the trader wants to look to go into NFP with their full position(s), so that if the volatility created around the announcement may be able to push their trade deeply into profitable territory, they can look to take advantage of that.
The slingshot looks to scale out of winning positions as the trade moves in the trader’s favor, and a variety of entries or entry strategies can be used to trigger the initial position.
Support and resistance identification is a necessity before opening any positions. Traders can also take this a step further by looking to the hourly or four-hour charts to determine any trends that may exist leading into the announcement. This way, if the biases going into NFP take place after the data is released, the trader can be on the right side of the move.
Support and Resistance is so important because that’s the ‘cut point’ with which the trader can close off the position if prices are going to move too far against them. Stops for long positions can go below support, and stops for short positions can go above resistance so that if either of these levels are broken, the loss can minimized.
