Good morning traders 🌅 Asia quiet (Nikkei +0.2%), US futures flat. After yesterday's Super-Thursday rally with Fed, ECB, and BoE, today at 14:30 CET the US jobs data (Non-Farm Payrolls) takes center stage. Markets are in wait-and-see mode. After the central bank decisions yesterday, today is the reckoning — NFP numbers will show whether the rally has substance or was just hype. ## Market Overview - **Asia**: Nikkei +0.2% at 59,388, quiet trading - **US Futures**: S&P 500 flat, no clear direction - **DAX Futures**: Slightly positive but cautious ## Today's Focus - **14:30 CET**: US Non-Farm Payrolls (expected: +180K) - **14:30 CET**: US unemployment rate - Options traders: High IV on index options before NFP ## Options Perspective After yesterday, today is payback time. Jobs data is the final big trigger of the week. Expect volatility from 14:30 CET onward ⚡ #morningcheck #trading #nonfarm #options #jobs
