Shorting this when we are testing the previous range, UC has not found support yet and EU has not found resistance yet is selling into dollar weakness right now, would not have been my choice.

thanks Vasille

i'll look him up

my thoughts though are that the golden ratio being 0.618
or 1.618 depending on expanding or contracting

23.6, 38.2, 61.8 being the sequence with 50 a midpoint

then fractally the two preceding numbers in the sequence
will have to show themselves at some stage too...

ie 9, 14.6, 23.6, 38.2
as they did on the recently weekly chart

just my observations that's all
u're welcome!

well, I suppose that this observation must be backtested on history, I've tried to expiriment with fibo ratios on pound, but finally has come to such conclusion: Pound loves 2 levels - 61.8 and 38.2. In some cases he might walk around this levels for a weeks. Well, if you will find something - I think that it would help in your analysys.

you are right cloggie, did consider that but am in 1/4 of my regular lot size, so can observe the possible loss if it goes against me. thanks for the hint though

UC is finding some support here, and if this week is anything to go by this 30 will fail anyways.

USDCHF, always a good one to see if this is Sterling strength or Dollar weakness.

hi guys

Thats difficult to say until it comes out...has it moved the market in the past -Yes !! can it be a prolongerd move (not just a quickly reversed knee-jerk to data release) - Yes, but as with all data it depends on wether it is different from that the market is expecting as to likely strength of any reaction.) This site rates it as 'High impact' data...The likeliest scenario is rates on hold at 0.5% and no change to Qe but the accompanying statement may offer more clues as may the minutes of this Boe/Mpc meeting to be released later in the month.
