Careful bro... unless you are going in for longer term longs. Price action suggests at least 1.37 is coming... I won't short here but I won't long yet either... this price action is similar to when we broke the big bad 1.934x level last year...

I agree with you 100% bro! I am not in a trade now... I closed my shorts at 4050 but looking at this now... sentiment and price action.... I wouldn't be suprised to see 1.36xx broken this time...
Indeed.even if it rises,people will start piling on the shorts at 1.40-1.4050.

hey guys,

looking a monthly chart going back 30 years, the major support points are 1.3690 - could get there today(i wouldnt entertain any longs until that reached), 1.3000, then not much until 1.0486 1983 low.....

counter trend trading is inherently dangerous as shown today if not used with good MM and timing.....

market tone is inherently unfavorable for sterling... there was a wedge pattern on daily that held on upside, now consequently broken down, selling rallies until something changes......
looking forward to a rally!

EU is back under trendline now as well

we may be range bound for a while between the 1.39 and 1.40 levels which make up the support/resistance levels back to 2001.

My 4hr doesn't have a blue candle, probably due to broker timezone difference.

Apparently there was a rumour that S&p and Fitch were about to cut UKs rating.This has just been denied by both.

However, sterling continued to plunge today and Jim Rogers, who co-founded the Quantum fund with George Soros, the billionaire investor, told Bloomberg: “I would urge you to sell any sterling you might have. It’s finished. I hate to say it, but I would not put any money in the UK”.

In 1970, Rogers joined Arnhold & S. Bleichroeder, where he met George Soros. That same year, Rogers and Soros founded the Quantum Fund. During the following 10 years the portfolio gained 4200% while the S&P advanced about 47%.[1] It was one of the first truly international funds.

hard to argue with that kind of legendary performance!!

Got used to the moves from Asia and early London. Is lunch over yet in London so we can start to move again, either up or down, I don't care which way for now.

as I pointed out earlier, he was also screaming to buy crude oil when the price fell from $147 to $127, and fell again to $117... citing the pullback had presented a great buying opportunity. a legendary investor, no doubt, but, like everyone else, he does make mistakes.

The question is, at which point?

I've been bitten 3 times going long at various support levels.

This Mofo is breaking every support there is.
If it's too good to be true, it probably is.

Looks like London wants to paint the chart (4hr & 1hr) a bit more negative.

yes of course, but he was long before the begining of the bull market in crude catching the run up from 30 to 140, you may argue his comments could well of provided the catalyst of todays swing lower....
