News will have to be pretty bad to drive price thru the bottom, but it has happened before and it could happen this morning.

This is my technical 90% point of view with the charts bellow.
It is like the modus operandi of cable. Short history and probably future.

My 10% fundamentals tell me...
If BOE Inflation Report sounds like nothing will change about the interes rate, Cable will go UP. IF somthing sounds like inflation is too high and probably a cut rate is in the close future, Cable will break the tunnel @ 4H TF to the down way.

Use proper MM always, there is no need to marrie negative positions.

Have a good trading guys, and good pips to all you.

Note: The second chart at the first paragraph the last sentence is incomplete. it should said " I guess that is why Wedge fails to reach the high as the first red arrow shows".
Carrera,

As usual, excellent charts. Thanks for sharing them with everyone here.

Cable has been a mess lately. Personally I've kept away as I don't like trading chaos because the odds are stacked against me then. There have been friendlier pairs to get involved with this week.

I see a reasonable set up in the making and I share your view that there could be a bull move waiting in the wings. Whether it materialises and to what extent, remains to be seen.

I need more evidence before putting my money on the line here but in my view, below is what could be shaping up.

From a fundamental perspective re: unemployment figures out of the UK this morning, the unemployment trend has been down (which is good for Cable), but just as in forex, that could change.

Both of you guys are completly correct. Jim and Rob. I won't place an order after the news for futher confirmation of direction.

Besides, Cable is doing whatever he wants. He (cable) doesn't care about good news, bad news, thecnical analysis, fundamentals, well you name it. He does the oppositive of all rules. We should change his nick from Cable to Bad boy.

the UK market is indecision because of whats happened in america but actually nothing is wrong here that isnt anywher else. I see no reason for why the gpb value to drop so much against a currency which is in trouble..

they always say its in the charts i just hope its a long cause this is what the charts are telling me ...very small bodies on 4hr is the short exhausted? ..i hope so

i still have my 3 longs....taking a risk here

I agree that cable has been behaving very strange lately. One just can't tell which direction it would be going. Even when both technical and fundamentals are lined up for it to one direction, it still goes the other direction. It defies the logic. So I would be very weary about trading it until some definite direction has been achieved.

But the news could ruin what could have been a nice long.. But we may get a better one when U.S. opens. So remember.....

Right now price is bouncing between the 89 Smoothy and the wedge bottom. Here is a chart that shows it.


P.S. You guys are really missing out on some great pips by ignoring the EUR/JPY, it gives the smoothest trading moves on the market and I just got 50.
