yeah, weird. I have seen movements like these in the past before the market opens. What is unusual is that the $ is not strengthening across the board. We'll find out in a few hours.

CB intervention at this point is futile.

Yep, but what has really changed? Tomorrow US retail data will be in the toilet and the Euro will be back at 1.59.

Yup! I can't wait to see the spread on the EURUSD at market open.

So did anyone arbitrage this situation with OANDA's weekend trading? I ask because I was watching eSignal's GTIS data around 18:00 GMT and it was showing 1.566 EUR/USD while OANDA was still showing 1.58 and had their typical 10 pip weekend spreads. It took OANDA until around 1815 or so to even start reflecting the market. Spreads went to 30 pips and bids dropped to around 1.569. Still, a good profit could have been made but I was too concerned with sorting out the situation. Because I had just turned on my computer, I wasn't about to risk money when I wasn't 100% sure I was looking at accurate numbers. If I had had more lead up time perhaps. While I didn't get short for lack of confirmation, I did get to close out my longs at 1.5796. And to think I was reluctant to pay the 10 pip spread. LOL.

So this raises the question: how often do these kinds of arb situations appear with OANDA?
