It's hard to say.
But what's for sure is that the easiest path for people is to vote "No", due to the complex nature of the Lisbon treaty, and reluctance to change.

Now we'll see how it unfolds, but watch your positions tonight...

The Lisbon treaty is the rewritten text, that should replace the rejected EU constitution (rejected in may 2005 by the No votes by French and Dutch voters).

Ireland is the only nation to vote on this text, all 26 other nations will have their parliament adopt the text without a referendum. This single Irish vote could derail all the process.

This text is critical to Europe governance, because it sets the rules of majority when voting in a bloc of 27 nations and 490 millions citizen.
Without this text, the old rule of unanimity will stay in place and no new policy could be voted, because of unanimity rule.

If the "No" wins, this will erode investors confidence, hence the possible selling in European currency.
Getting it right is NOT as important as not getting it wrong.

time to go up i guess. 30 mins formed a nice reversal pattern at a support. could still be a retracement anyway. am definitley not trading today anymore. 70pips is ok.

NAvin, sorry for bothering you. av bin following ur posts for avery long time. one thing av also learnt about candle patterns is that on pattern on one timeframe might be cancelled by one on another. e.g. an inverted hammer on 15mins (uptrend) towards the end of a four hour candle might end up becoming a bullish engulfing on the 4H chart. so which way do you go....
up or down?.. u have to trade of one timeframe and only use larger timeframes to confirm the safety of such trades. never look to the lower ones. its just like being on d 5th floor of a buillding. will someone on the 10th floor not see you better than somone on the ground floor?

what i do use pivots and look for a candle pattern around major support/resistance area....note how price reacted in the past...then a signal on a lower time frame can be a early signal.....

otherwise 1hr or higher go with...

15 minutes i use to find diverence along with the candle pattern to confirm, i only have ever used leading indicators to trade

price action is all u need..now im using moving averages just to gain extra confluence....but definately read steve nisson candlestick book..i have read this and found it very usefull

doji, engulfing pattern, dark cloud cover, piercing pattern .....i look for this always at only support/resistance

right now ..15 minute chart has a morning star configuration...means nothing really just that need to look at 1 hr to produce a piercing pattern...then long is good to go..
i say this to u cause this is what i should do ...but actually when i trade emotion and ovver trading take over..and i dont wait but i use weekly as reference and know that the low of last week is tested and the long wick last week rejected price (weekly) so the odd for long from here is favourable...risk im willing to take

1 hr candle can be doji here or piercing...any1 one of the 2 will produce upward movement..if this doesnt happen exit at loss....this is how i trade.....pattern are everything to me

Could anyone tell me why the GBP shrugged off bad news yesterday. All news were bad for the Gbp, even though it went north. Thanks.

Last note on the Lisbon Treaty.

Bookies betting on the "No" vote.

With the vote going down to the wire the 2/1 for a No Vote looks too good to reject!

the problem is the droping of the oil holding the price down and catch the uper trend to be formd, i think we will see a stable period now till the USA news pop out
