Morning fellas,

Aussie driving some impressive numbers lately, holding long @9930 (couldn´t get a better entry ), looking for parity.

Rather minor spanish auction ahead in a few minutes, will post results as soon as I get´em (and trade´em, if they shake it).

Major event of the day - BoE rate statement + APF later on...

Spanish auction in +/- line with expectations given the risk environment. 10 years turning around, still above the 6% but flirting to break below.

More free money from the UK is the mover this morning until then very choppy across the board.

Hey Sisse, those yields still seem rather high, especially 10yr above psycho 6%...

Still, markets seem to chew this result just fine + we still have french auction to go, which tended to outperform recently so I expect some decent numbers from this auction to further propel risk on

Well yes they are bit higher than before but you need to put it in the context. Spanish banks are on the brink and Spanish bailout is almost a done deal (one way or another), plus they managed to sell 2.1b (slightly better) so IMO I would put that as in the "kind of good" side of the in line with expectations.

French auction on the irrelevant side for today.

That´s what we got and with auctions out of the way, EUR ticking higher here, spanish and other spreads tightening considerably...

2584 level has been tested 4 times (and holding ) since yesterday

if futures don`t push higher , I will treat it as a possible session high

ATR is still 60 pips short to fill the range though

moving SL up sharply on another failure to form a new high
