The Non-Farm Payrolls (NFP) data released by the US Bureau of Labor Statistics measures changes in the number of workers outside the agricultural sector over a period of one month. This data is an initial indicator of consumer spending and overall economic activity, and is an important consideration for the Fed in determining interest rates.

February 1, 2019: NFP AS, Manufacturing
Last December 2018, NFP increased by 312,000 jobs, far higher than the estimated increase of 179,000 jobs, and the highest since February 2018. The average number of jobs added in the last 3 months was 254,000 jobs per month, higher than the previous month of 189,667 jobs per month.

In December 2018, the most employment increments were medical care personnel (+50,000 jobs), professional labor and business services (+43,000 jobs), manufacturing (+32,000 jobs), retail trade (+24,000 jobs), construction (+38,000 jobs), and food services (+41,000 jobs).

For January 2019, it is estimated that NFP will add 165,000 jobs, while according to ADP Non Farm Employment Change data dated January 30, 2019, NFP will increase 213,000 jobs (release). A higher than expected release will likely cause the USD to strengthen.
be careful if trading at NFP. Because it can cause a margin call.

An index that measures output changes, which are included in the composite index on Wednesday which is also seen to measure economic health levels, also holds below the 50 level, which separates growth from contraction, at the level of 48.9. A little higher than April at 48.0.

Chris Williamson, chief business economist at IHS Markit said that the manufacturing sector in the Euro area was still contracting during May, indicating that the sector would be the biggest cause in the economic slowdown in the second quarter.

He also added that the decline for the fourth consecutive month in output and a further sharp decline in new orders underlined how the sector is still under pressure since 2013.

Those who trade NFP base their suggestions on prior preparation and some fundamental research. Explanation of some macroeconomic analysis is very important for a successful trade. 
According to the number of results of the NFP on 07 June 2019 what would it be like?

This time the euro zone service sector activity data is a pillar, apart from the weakening dollar factor, a factor contributing to the strengthening of the euro in the previous two trading days.

The PMI Final Services in the euro zone turned out to be better than economists expected because during the fifth month service sector activity increased to 52.9, from 52.5 in April, while exceeding estimates at the same rate, 52.5.

A good reading of the euro zone was supported by data from the largest eurozone economy, Germany where the German Final Services PMI expanded last May, shown in the figure of 55.4, greater than the estimate of 55.0, and in April in the same figure.

At writing, EURUSD is trading at 1.1283, up 0.29 percent or 33 pips

The number of new workers in the US fell sharply in May, with their numbers only increasing by 75,000 even though the unemployment rate remained at a 50-year low, the US Labor Department said on Friday.

This decline was the second in four months where the number of workers rose by less than 100,000 because the labor market still showed signs of weakness. Previously, economists surveyed by Dow Jones expected to add 180,000 workers.

In addition, the trigger for the decline in the number of workers in May was a report two months earlier which showed a substantial downward revision. For March the amount dropped from 189,000 to 153,000 and for April it fell to 224,000 from 263.00 for a total decline of 75,000.

In general, the report became another black spot amid fears of a bigger slowdown.

Meanwhile the unemployment rate is still at the level of 3.6%, in line with estimates and the lowest level since December 1969. A broader measure includes desperate and underemployed workers who work part time for economic reasons, sometimes called the real unemployment rate , down further, from 7.3% to 7.1%, this was the lowest reading since December 2000.

Non-farm payrolls only recorded 75k in the same period, far lower than expectations set at 185k. April NFP data was also revised down from 263k to 224k.

today there will be Non Farm Payrolls news in November 2019. Last October the NFP added 128,000 jobs, higher than the forecast of 90,000 jobs, but the lowest in the last 5 months. The average increase in jobs in the last 3 months was 158,666 jobs per month, lower than the previous month which was 171,333 jobs per month. For November 2019 it is estimated that NFP will increase 181,000 jobs. The release results that are higher than expected will tend to cause the USD to strengthen.
