Has anyone seen anything that is causing this extreme downward move? I didn't think there was any major news or events going on this week.

PA fans will tell you that PA has been screaming for bearish move for a long time now, while fundamental people will point to carney's comment that indefinitely put on hold the BoE raise, then indy folks will swear by one of the 10,000 indicators that pinpointed the drop,

Geez, sarcastic much . I realise the recent failed snap election and Brexit are the current concerns in the UK, and if that makes everyone feel a bit pessimistic for the future then I can see why the GBPUSD would head south. But those things did not happen yesterday, they've been around for a while, so I was wondering more along the lines of why the sentiment seemed to kick in particularly strongly yesterday starting with a sudden 81 pip drop.

There were also very sudden drops with the election poll results being released, then with the election results themselves and now...well for no real reason (that didn't already exist). Generally there is a triggering stimulus for large sudden moves, not just the general disappointment that we all feel towards our politicians pretty much all the time.

Just wondering out loud.

Hello traders,

Another day in the paradise for me.

At the London open, very good volatility, opportunities present on GBPAUD, GBPCAD, GBPUSD and GBPJPY, that's for the pairs checked permanently and used for trading. I have decided to enter short on GBPJPY because of the ccfp, where the spread between the two legs GBP and JPY has been the most important at that moment.

Time in trade just above 10 minutes , so for an intraday trader the level of the stress has been mastered. You know what I mean, even with a low risk there is always something that could push the trader to do mistakes.

The chart is bellow as usual, with all the explanations on it. Don't hesitate to ask if you need further informations. For figures, please follow the trade explorer.

I wish you all a nice sunny day,

Longer term i'm looking down and have targets below....... but doesn't mean it can't move up 200-300 pips, catch some shorts and dive down again. Tricky but this sh** happens all the time.

I know that can happen. But let me give you a tip. Trade away from the open - today 1.2630, especially if that is the trend.

Consider our bluff called. Call me a remoaner if you like, but this government is now in a mess. Even the DUP don't want to get their hands dirty.

Mark Carney: that the Bank of England had issued ‘an emergency currency based on the Queen’s eggs, several thousand of which were removed from her ovaries in 1953 and held in reserve’.
