Dont know what will happen with the GB GDP figures but what ever it will have an effect on the GB/US and I think will have a flow on to EU AU etc.As far as other news Bernacke talks in just under 5 hours time so might pay to keep that in mind not that I can see him talking up the $ but whoever knows for all the rhetoric this weak $ is really suiting them atm.

Great Thanks!!!

Sorry for my ignorance, could you please tell who this Bernacke guy is??

Hi Tiger,
All the indices are still holding, US30, SPX500 are still over the 10k mark, ASX200 is also holding strong, so there may not be that much of a drop after all. Sideways? maybe but my thought would be towards the mid 9280s ( low od 9250 wcs untill the speech).

Hi Tradoholic!!

Do you think if UK GDP numbers come out really good and if EUR gets serious HIT against GBP, the EUR & AUS could drop down against DOllar as well ?
As for the indices, you are absolutely right that they are holding up at the moment so no signs of a drop there..GOld however is showing some signs of Bearish trend but its been moving between 1050-1066 range for the last few days anyway....

One more thing I forgot to mention is that I follow the Floor Traders Pivots and that at the moment sits on 9268, so when it well clears that point it would go in the same direction. It has been hovering around it for a while now. so lets see.
Secondly, few weeks ago the UK's finance minister mentioned in a speech that they favour weaker pound against the Euro, so even if the numbers are in favour of sterling I think the govt will intervene. If they dont then Au$ will weaken as the result ( depending on other factors as well).

I was thinking of selling, but thought I'd see if it went any further up while I had a snack. Came back to see it had fallen to my buy point.

Got to go with the feelings. If I had of, I could have rebought now. Oh well .... next time.

Im still looking for a drop to around 9050, can see the finishing of the H+S forming now on 1H. Can see resistance on 1H at 9280, ill short from there and until next TL support. Still practising my analysis so apologies if it seems illogical.

where is that info on his speech, web??
CHATHAM, Massachusetts (Reuters) - U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said on Friday the central bank would conduct more comprehensive reviews of banks and demand more reporting as part of efforts to tighten oversight following a damaging financial meltdown.

In his most detailed description of the Fed's role in the aftermath of the crisis, Bernanke, speaking at a Boston Fed conference, renewed support for the creation of a systemic risk oversight council.

today. anybody kind enough to transalate this and the impact aftermath???

Interesting sentiment read tonight. Looks like retail traders are getting with the programme on AUD and starting to go long now with long positions 30.8% higher than yesterday.

Also interesting to note is that open interest is below it's monthly average on all currencies except for the EUR. What might that be do you think? Margin calls?
