Or are you waiting for the USD news to determine market direction?

I'm a newb trader and trying to figure out what the heck is going on....

Time to tighten up the stops, put her on autopilot, and get to bed. I'll be dreaming of .6150!

Gnight all.

I am looking at the underlying trend line of the Cable, combined with the strong resistance, gives the potential of an ascending triangle play. Just keep an eye on the trend lines.

Yes i`d go long from there too right now, but i somehow doubt it will get that low ... if you are not in just wait and see.... compare what we say with what your system says... and trade.

I think the us news will either make it go up or sink it and make new lows... i`m on the long side tho, i think it`s more probabile for today.

EDIT: Also be very carefull on the news.... cabble had a bad habit lately of going up(spike) making people buy it, then taking a big dive down.... if you get profit on the news, maybe it`s better to put sl @ be...

Good luck!

I'm bias to long GU..the negative UK news is already accounted for in the fall..analysis maybe bias to sell.. I think the US news will determine it. I guess.but in forex anything can happen.

Do you have any info we don`t?

UK was way better than people thought... so what`s happening now is people realizing UK is not that bad as they originally thought, that and investor apetite for risk(now that there are signs the recession has bottomed and trust that the worse is over)

Good us news means recession there is ending, people are moving away from the dollar and buying cabble waiting for it to(slowly) climb to the levels it had before the recession started.

I honestly think we won`t get that low unless we get massive failure in the banking sector to scare people again, otherwise we will have drops... but the overall trend is up...

My opinion anyway.

Green pips!

EDIT: Look how much dow/s&p fell.... cabble refused to make new lows... doesn`t that thell you this currency is strong ? At least for now?(I`m not doing long term trader, my "long term" trades last 8-10 hours tops, so i might change my view from bullish to bearish tomorrow, but today i`m bullish)

Cable made a kind of double top formation at 1.66 levels and receded close to 300 pips on Friday. It has maintained its falling spree with the spot at 1.6250. The confirmation of the double top pattern would happen with the break of 1.6100 levels on a closing basis. Strategy remains to short at swings for target 1.6150. Breaking of 1.61 would be very bearish for the pair. (Gbp/Usd: 1.6250). Short term Bearish..let's see how the news changes john's few towards this..HOLLA

I'm expecting it to go back up towards 6420 to complete wave e of the triangle. Then off we nosedive again and this time, breaking the triangle lower tl.

yes you are right. we expect gbp to start picking for long time overall, but while there is still some level of uncertainty in the market, that alone is enough to complete the formation from the techincal aspect.all this are fundamental. looking at my chart, i see strong double top on the daily, also there is a wide double top on the 4hrs and also head and shoulder formed already. these are two strong technical reversal. short term i remain bearish, middle term also bearish for now, unless i see a sustained break of the daily high(double top).this break will change my view back to neutral. my opinion we have a midterm top at 1.66xx

From 6420 today - (EUR and GBP should rise) tomorrow could be a tanker correct?

I'm expecting a proper test of the lows before around 1.6150 before heading up. From the candles all the momentum seems to be to the downside, we will have to wait and see tho
