Often this happens cause the news is being priced in before hand so I would be wary of more bullish news even though its not supposed to be.

Still, very wierd move considering that euro is sitting still. There is no reason for the GBP to strengthen vs. euro that rapidly right now...
My take is that positive dollar news are being priced in. Being virtual, the UK economy is in much more vulnerable state than that of the USA, and completely depends on the health of financial markets worldwide. Therefore, any sign of US-positive news will translate into stronger GBP as well.

thats a ripple effect from USD good news to gbp .. but the market will sooner reflect whats the worth of gbp in these coming days.. the current price of GU is for surely misleading.

1.9845 = one night stand..u wont see it again tomorrow.

Agreed, I expect a nice flight down. Probably right on the US rate cut.

everybody have to digest that 0.25 rate cut doesn't mean it will make USD weaker, but it will stimulate it stronger.. so in couple of hours, whether its no cut or .25 rate cut , usd will go north..

Newbie here! G/U is really strange I got burned last friday rally while trading the news expecting a little short but instead it went the opposite direction. Now this time I did a reverse instead and started long at 1.9730 all the way to 1.9839.

'now just waiting for a clear descent before short'??

pyramus dont wait too long, by the time you decide to pull the trigger this will probably have fallen 40/50 pips, and then you will be reluctant to sell..

price has shot up 230 pips before an important announcement, doesnt this ring a bell?
