SNB won't allow Euro below 1.2. That's their stated aim and as long as they can fund this, it will prop up the Euro. Secondly, China has big business interests in Europe and massive USD holdings.
SNB can also buy usd/chf to keep the eur/chf at 1.2.
the euro went down in the last 3 weeks like gbp and aud but now it stalled!!!

all is possible and what nAVIN2007 said is possible too, I was thinking because the problem is with eurozone euro would be affected most with this!!!

look for yourself at the figures..gbp isnt doing bad at all..infact look at the stength..cable could have hit the floor..

gold is falling, euro falling and usd increase yet..the drop on cable isnt massive..

i am thinking longer term..and to me..the big guns are droping it to get good seats
but please dont follow this is very dangerous experiment i have and is not wise

Well just now the market reacted to the stream of good GBP data in a lukewarm way, almost non responsive. This suggests that risk aversion is going to be deeply rooted in the market sentiment for a long time, and USD safe haven effect will be in full force. Waiting for U.S data to come out later on and see what happens, if bad data ensues may be we can get someone to talk up more stimulus possibilities and give GBP/USD some support.

agree...
1)
since april : 5-6 month ( say 5 month )
pip per month : 1000 / 5 = 200 pip
working day per month : 20 days
pip per day : 10 pip ...not massive ( my imho )

2)
nav....have very lot of money
use minimal lot per trade
no panic

you can "invest" only if no leverage is involved

otherwise one of these trades will kill your acc eventually

Nav, you know I love ya like a brother. But look at what you yourself are saying man.

"You Hope" .... "Wasn't a good idea" ... 'Risking 35-40%"??!!! ... "I'm not trading I'm investing"??

Brother, you know we don't trade on hope. You KNOW it's not a good idea and your risk is WAY out of control. I have to say man, you're not "trading OR investing", you're engaged in wishful thinking because I think you're afraid to cut your losses.

Now I'm by no means a professional trader but I do care about you bro. I think you're making a big mistake but it's your account, your call and I PRAY your "wish" comes true!!

Just FYI i believe GBPUSD is in weekly range of 1.567-1.643 with the mean at approx 1.605

as of now there is a significant larger probability of mean reversion up (to 1.605), but if it breaks 1.5600 and stays there for a while - risk of further fall through will be very high
