Cheers. and you are right, it will take time which may lead to interesting ranges. I have just heard a lot of comments suggesting to not bet against the long term down trend and I believe that it will be a strong downtrend if at all. I do enjoy the fundamental discussion though to put the technicals in perspective, thank you.

Quoting spintrader
Thanks for the explanation. No don't worry, I have my own plan mapped out, if you read my posts you will see that I have been shouting for shorts for a while, and I will continue to!
I think I agree with what you are saying, however I think that the safety in the pound that you speak of will take a lot longer to materialise. Whilst you say that there is less evidence of economic woe in the UK, I think we most certainly haven't seen the last of it.
And as for the rate cut, I don't think anyone was really expecting a sudden 1000 pip plunge. I think its effect on market sentiment will be shown over the coming weeks. And the 150 bpp cut from the UK opposed to the 50 basis point cut in the euro...

It's ok I thought you meant that. No, you are right it's good to discuss the fundamentals on here. I think they get ignored a bit for the technicals.

As important as technicals are, I think Fundamentals will always be the dominant factor in what drives the price.

Good discussion!

dam wish I'd held onto that short position opened when it hit the 1hr 62ema instead of just closing for a few, but when baby nature calls it calls.

I love the technical stuff. Total Techno addict. I just want to see Bad US data = Sell $$. Lately that is not the case and it sucks. Maybe today will be different so I am looking out for that to change.

For the rest of the intraday trading the technical stuff is much more accurate, and some of you blokes like Micho, are amazingly good at it.

It seems to do it as a result of a lack of orders as no-one trades it. I suspect it is moving towards the closest stop orders as a demand attraction and not neccessarily indicating direction.
