I went long based on how the mas are lined up right now..... 4h 5/10ema, 1h 62ema, 15m 50/35 and also the gap from last week's close has now been filled. If we get below these lines I may reconsider....

Thanks Infinity.

On the macro scale the news from across the pond is 2.5% drop on VAT - that's a soundbite IMHO - I can't see it having much effect at this stage of the game.

100Bn extra borrowing to be paid for by taxes on high earners over 150K per annum.

Again not attractive to overseas players.

The Labour govt has a history of devaluing the currency back in the 70's.

This budget is a gamble that may pay off, but the market may just mark it down as old labour policies and punish sterling anyway.

Just my opinion as an expat.

It is already below pivot line.
I think this baby is going south

We have retraced to just past the 38.2 of the move up from the end of Friday and Sunday. I would be looking to get a candle or two above the 38.2 before going long again. On the other side, if we break below the 61.8 and open a candle or two there, I will look for a short. If you look at your 4hr charts you will see we have been bouncing back and forth on the trend lines.

You have to be careful when volumes are low like they are now... lots of whipsaw action may well take place..
