wow.... surprising it was, but in the wrong way.... It's easy to figure out a given day is a Friday....

But the reaction is very strange.... This pattern usualy means big moneys in the sidelines with their on agenda.... I'm waiting for confirmation to enter, but it feels it will go up, good news, bad news, good Friday, bad Friday

On the way down, I'm out...

Strong bulls preventing a decent move on 0.3%. Getting frustrated with these bulls preventing the retracement we need

Took my stops thats for sure! I think South may be the direction to go now. However my predictions the last 2 days have been disasterous.

The first 3 days this week the money I made I have just lost today and yesterday! I love trading sometimes

The data was mixed Lower Retail but previous was revised up.

However, does the current number encourages MPC to hold rates?

Interesting.. It broked down to 1.9987 but was immediately bought back up!

jailumar I agree just didnt think it would be so soon today.

Lesson to self 1) Dont convince oneself an economic report will be better than expected due to rumours and previous high CPI and average earnings reports for UK ETC. You may go down in flames.

YES, just noticed the revision... Previous 1.4% was already strong and now it's up to 1.6%. This may be causing the silly moves...

Still in the sidelines here....

Spiked below it and I had a thought in my head to long from sub 2.0 levels but that was before the weak UK data. Now that dip could be a signal of going lower. So many questions and no answers.

Islander, what exactly is the 200 EMA band at the top of your chart?
Thanks...
I´ve got bands at +/- 35; 70 & 105 ---levels at which price often reacts.....go back a few week and look and decide for yourself.

Also good on 1m at news times....nice sell off the 200 and exited on the long tail down to 9994 http://www.forexfactory.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Not yet - I'm still open and back to a small profit.
