Unfortunately not.. :-)

I spread bet, so not exactly sure what the leverage is on the cable..

I dont work to any charts.. I use the famous Sods Law method, its good cos it keeps kicking you when your down.. and its consistent .LOL.

Guys, I have a fantastic idea.. to make it drop below the 1.9490 level..

What I will do is close my short position when it gets to that level, and as always watch it drop another 50 pips immediately after..

Its never failed so far..
And I thought it was only me....

Guess the whole world is waiting for us to get out of our positions...

Oh, I'm back short after it broke 9500 down one hour ago.... Guess that was the reason we saw 9511 afterwards

[FOCUS COMMENT: FOMC MINUTES LIFT] The broad Dollar index continues to lift away from the 84 support with y/day's CPI data adding to short covering. This has been helped by the FOMC minutes which again clipped the Dollar bears claws.

I think the pound will only get direction after the unemployment claims data is released. My opinion is that if the data is worst than expected the pound will go to 1.96 if the data is bad it will spike down and retrace to 1.95

Well guess we all traded the right thing. Frakfurt cleared it down below 9500, we shorted because it is OBVIOUS that London goes along with Frankfurt on this big move, then we saw 9460 - so far so good - now just wait for the second assault down.... wait a little more... wait... oops... back to 9500... oopss 9510... wait it is just a whipsaw... oopss 9518....

its kinda holding just below 1.95.. but the Euro's now rising from its earlier downturn.. what with the Yen still kicking and screaming upwards too, I worry that the Cable has to follow suit.

I dont know which pair I hate most, GBPUSD or the GBPJPY

I hate em all!!!

C'mom NEW YORK, do something... Stope me out or profit me up, I don't give a shit anymore......

But another 4 hours at 9500 and this monitor will suffer the consequences..

Exactly..

I think im going to close out and wait for the US data..

It always goes against my trade anyway..

Or, to be daring shall I keep my short open.. put a stop in that will get jumped the minute it spikes upwards.. leaving my marketmaker enjoying the benefits..

Im torn..
