learning something doesnt always mean sticking to it in our actions. but it means the next time we take an action we take it knowing fully well all the different perspectives

wohohoho this pair has been given plenty +++++ pips lately....

3 weeks on a row and the game continues, short for targeting 1,94 on next weeek, as gu strenght has been driven mainly cause discounts in retail sales but not real uk economy strenght.

but anyway, find u/chf case most interesting, wave correction has been completed.
put a long targeting 110 at any pont next week and forget
(this pair shall rise to about 115 soon.)

many people say, oh the pound has lost lot of value and that stuff, but if you watch carefully pound rate of movement, the pound has lost almost nothing against the dollar.
the thing is if the Bush package plan manages to work the $ could strenghten and send gu even more down.

gu recovered cause some "investors" think uk economy is getting out of the woods by that report, + the sunday housing prices increase.
but in my opinion, that is not trend, is just a bounce, even some boe member are discussing between 0.50%, 0.25% rate cuts cause the stresses on the economy, especially housing sector and consumers debt.

true, they care about inflation but they say its going to be controlled just by slowing demand. so pound has just much room to lose.

but hope more usd weakness could lead us at least 1.98 to put a big short.
if not. i am short at 1.9670 tp 1.94 next week.

thnx for the insight but i hear that the rate cut will probably be 50 bps to prevent more expansion of their problems.

thnx again im short at 19698 looking for that 9400.

No man you are making a mistake on the TF full stop
As I’ve said before it is exactly the same mistake I have made in the past. But I can tell you when someone actually told me this here on FF ,I stopped immediately

We would have to examine the unit volume sales to establish that - and even if unit volumes were constant, the reasons for unit price hikes could be for all sorts of reasons.
Certainly crude oil would cost more in GBP as it is dollar based, but for Euro based products in a short time scale like a month or two, importers tend to keep the domestic price steady - especially where there is domestic competition

Jaguar cars don't immediately increase their price in the US when the dollar slips and China doesn't seem to increase it's prices at all

Its far more likely that the Brits are simply spending more - and why not ? the economy is doing great in comparison and the average householder has made hundreds of thousands of dollars profit on their houses (unlike the US) , even with a 5 or 10 or 20% fall in their current value

I don't know where this bleak picture of the UK is coming from - I think a misunderstanding of the Northern Rock thing is behind it

Compare UK jobs to anywhere else in Europe and you will see what I mean

I had to learn how to trade on higher TF' to learn how to scalp in this market. I'd prefer to trade on the higher TF's, more rewarding and less stressful.
