Yeah that channel support might make prices bounce, but I think it should not provide much support. My target specifically is 1.9740, I am not sure if that is possible at this stage yet or not, But I know Sterling will probably make another new recent low before making the bigger retracement.
Yeah. I don't want to anticipate what is going to happen here. Just brought that up because cable at 9800-9900 is no picnic. This is a critical level this time.

And there is a huge fundamental in the air here: we may have seen the end of UK hike cycle at 5.75%. Some bet on 6% as toppish for 2007 but it doesn't seem likely for now. One or two CPIs around 2% and we will talk about this channel with our grandchildren.

There is a guy who has access to bank positions. One can only have that kind of info with a big...I mean a BIG account...got it from the source. For now it is still true but it changes all the time.

And tomorrow might just be the day
UK CPI, Core and RPI coming up. If prices are hugging the channel support just before the news come, it might just be a hint that there will be a break. For me the UK hike cycle has ended, while the cut cycle has started

Nice. Great minds think alike! I don't have a target yet. I let my chart tell me when to exit. I hope you're right, 1.98 would make for a nice payday! Of course, Greenspan could get a hemmorhoid attack and it all could change, LOL!
Who are these hemmorhoids ? Lets bomb em now before they get chance !

Where is Hemmorhoidia anyway ? doesn't matter we can find out after...
they must be 'down under ' ? somewhere near australia ?

LOL! I beleive the BOE is in a similar situation as the Fed. With the mortgage banking problems in both the US and UK, they may have no choice but to start to cut rates regardless of inflation pressures.

Tomorrow is pretty much D-day for Sterling and Dollar and to some extent Euro.

CPI, Core and RPI for Sterling
PPI, Core, Housing, Tics and of course FOMC decision for Dollar
ZEW for Euro

Notice how terrible the forecast is for ZEW. A worse number than forecast might send Euro plummeting. It will be a big day tomorrow.

Hey my friend...I did a quick google search and found out that "Iran as an Arab nation" is still open for debate. So I guess calling the Iranians Arabs can't be taken as a lack of accuracy. Correct me if I'm wrong
correct, also all of those countries are islamic countries

Sleeping now and waking up in 9 hours can get you prepared, but watch out for the hangover.

Definitely BEAR

It's all smelling bears here. cable, CPI, stock market. Everywhere I look, a bear.

Just checked my wife now. She's grabbing a nap huging her Winnie the Pooh.

This got to mean something....

I am not going to apply logic to the numbers - been caught that way before - the market movers are twisted contrarian maniacs...
