Let's get back to where we started first.

There you go both Fibre and Cable are back where they started pretty much to the pip from before the news, normal service can now resume.

Same here, that was loads of fun and pretty predictable. I still did not trade it though, am not desperate enough for that one.

And eyes on 4038, that will be the turt for you.

That turt is getting rancid, it's been around for days now..


And guess what, 4068 next, I may as well recycle my posts from today and yesterday

Atm I'm looking for 115 to clear before taking another long.

hit the earlier upside target WR1 almost to the pip then back down to the daily open, so pretty much covered the day's trading range in 15 minutes.

always chaotic, never random. ..lol

still flat until the smoke clears.

The Fed said it would buy up to $600 billion in long-term Treasurys until the end of June 2011, about $75 billion this month, in a strategy called quantitative easing

This is the second time the Fed has engaged in quantitative easing, as it snapped up $1.7 trillion in mostly housing-related assets December 2008 and March 2010....

....To implement the Federal Reserve’s new policy of quantitative easing, the New York Fed plans to buy $850 billion to $900 billion in Treasury notes over the next five months, including $600 billion in new purchases and about $250 billion to $300 billion to reinvest the proceeds of maturing mortgage-backed securities, the New York Fed announced Wednesday.

if the Fed buys $600 billion USD shouldn't the gbp/usd fall? I know they only print money but still the movement should be down.
Our beliefs are based on logic and the pursuit of clearity.

No exactly the other way round, they are buying Treasuries not Sterling so there is an increase in M3, therefore the value of the underlying currency (USD) drops. However it is pretty much what was expected so don't anticipate a massive move, the trend however is not changing due to the news so longer term bias is still North.

At least I don't have to change my sentiment in my signature.

Done. I am getting bored trading this, no surprises today to make me situp and pay attention.

I am going to stop posting the same thing over and over again, you guys get the drift by now.
