{quote} i am still riding the bull trend. moving my sl along to protect. possible TP at about 1.32 will not enter any sell position. i would prefer to enter buy at lower price when there is pullback. {image}
Personally I wouldn't class this as a bull trend, it's a 'panic' sell of the dollar. If people are wondering, who is buying the pound this high up, they aren't. They are getting out of dollars at any price. Hence the parabolic move. Symantics but hey.

{quote} Hi. Anything is posible, but probable today given we are already > 200% of 30day adr traveled,? I don't know. That said it's an extraordinary circumstance that is driving it so you never know, - certainly probable at some point I would have thought,? barring any further contrary shock/development. --------------------------------------------------------------- ...I wonder whether Zebi and Wavegarrick got out of their longer-term shorts before Trump y/day? --------------------------------------------------------------- ...Straight-line upside...
I think WG has longer term longs and dabbled in shorter term shorts as well.

Yeh, I think that's right. Zebi was averaged in @ 2899 as I remember, hope he got out.

....a lot of hyperbole re this Trump move. Only time will tell whether some of it comes to pass, and indeed whether it will do for him/the U.s what he hopes it will.

Account shattering move for bears... Key note the first 3 trading days of February, March and this April have produced 301 - 320 pips.. I suspect the year will end with a crash below 1.20.

Hi. Well, it's not as though the thing (and likely effects,) weren't well trailed beforehand, so no real sympathy for bears. Not sure about your 1.20 forecast by y/e but anything can happen so who knows,? thanks for that info though.

The thing is what can precipitate such a move? Price is so far risen that buying here is scary. Selling is scary too. This year might not be normal. It might be a huge shift to a different range of prices, like 2900 to 4000.

Yeah, I want to hold back a bit because fundamentals will destroy teekies all day long. So, I'm waiting a bit longer to see the set-up, but think I'll be entering short soon.

This move, to me, is about both tariffs and pre NFP pump.

That's pretty raw prediction .
Well l, now it hit resistance zone and we'll see during several weeks how market gonna be react... if bounce from this price zone or I expect from 1.34.
Then just seek support resistance on weekly timeframes and watch economic news...

Personaly I am disappointed from Rachel Reeves and currently idk what to expect. But I bet for grow and to break the current resistance. At least false break out
