Yeah, I wouldn't be surprised at another test of 235 before the final run up.

It will never happen my friend the situation right now is very much different from last feb 27 where the G7 are airing their problem re carry trades unlike the last meeting all of them are saying that "let the market decide on its own rate" so manipulator back off!!!:

technically, they are still intact...for me.

fundamentally overbought, and reeks of inflated prices. Not that it won't do any good but im sure there will be intervention inflated prices are not good for the british econ, some people might have a differing view but this psychological level will drive many small buyer to take ownership of the pound, and i have a feeling the big boys will slowly unload to the these people, so expect dip and bounce.

Currently we are seeing alot of speculation, the voaltility is crazy!
Its like playing bait...the big boys hover the prices, catch the small fish like us and unwinds. We are at heavy resistance areas...i'm not sure if price is fundamentally sound right now. All i see is heavy volatility with no proper direction.

The yen steadied on Friday after U.S. share prices managed to hold up despite sharp drops in other stock markets on worries about an overheating Chinese economy, calming fears of a massive unwinding of yen carry trades.
The yen rose broadly on Thursday after strong Chinese economic growth data triggered fears of interest rate hikes, hitting Asian stock markets and prompting investors to cut back on short positions in the Japanese currency.
But the Japanese currency trimmed gains in U.S. trade on Thursday as the Dow posted a record closing high for a second day in a row.
"Movements in stock markets continue to be the main factor in the currency market, although the Dow's solid performance overnight soothed worries about yen carry trades a bit," said
Tsutomu Soma, a senior manager at Okasan Securities.
In the carry trade, investors borrow the low-yielding Japanese currency to buy higher-yielding assets abroad.

hey jest,

if the rumors are that the retail numbers will be really bad, there is no way they will hike rates, which intelligent people would say a huge drop in the carry trade, right??? or will the yen be manipulated to go to 120 or so just to keep it at this level or even higher?? if the usd is so weak against the yen, how can it be at 118, it should be at 100 if their economy is so good and they have to hike rates. would be cool to make a couple thousand pips in the crash, but i know intelligent people are not running this market, just the escapees from the looney bin!!!

Truthfully, we will not know what will happen in the future. What makes you so sure the rates will be going up in the first place? How good can the forecasting be? Looking at History, BOE has done alot of crazy things with rates. Immediete price action during news is not where i play my trading game, it has become such a farce, the volume is so huge that the only fundamental thing abt it is the numbers coming out at that time...period. I personally feel that even if the rates are to be hiked upwards, it would have been priced in already and news leak shared between the people up there on highly traded pairs are a norm. The real fundamental would be looking at what are the averse effects it has on global economy if pound keeps going up?

Europe - bullish
US - bearish
Asia
- Jpy has a bullish econ but pegging down due to trade competetion
- China limiting surplus due to growth bubble,

somehow or rather one cycle has to end and US being one of the most important pivots to world economies, one can only guess...
