my question is why try to even trade GU in Asia ? typically it really only makes its moves in London and US session.

I see this as being a bear flag , with a breakdown of the flag hitting 1.4500 tonight in London session

i personally think the non farm on friday will change everything...i think the figures for US will be so bad to gpb may make a recovery

dollar index to me look very border line to sink

I am going to Milano this weekend. But I will buy gbp/usd at 1,4500-15

It is overbought MACD and stochastic will should be at level 20-30 when closing gbp/usd later today (1,4550-80). And then stochastic is down from the short-term overbought.

ordinarily, i would expect USD to sink on terrible NFP data. but such bad data has, of late, caused the dollar (and yen) to appreciate, due to heightened risk aversion etc...

nfp does not carry much impact lately.
In fact adverse results makes the dollar stronger

I think cable could initially rally should the rate cut be either in line or greater than expectations. This was how price action played out after last month's bigger than expected cut, with the markets rewarding the pro-active BOE. Conversely, I think the markets could punish sterling if the cut is less than expected, as this would be viewed as inaction from the MPC.

If the cut is 1% i think it has been discounted.
We may even see the gbp stronger
