Very difficult to predict where the market will go.
I think the best way is to wait and see where the market heading and jump in.

Reason is sometimes market is irrational.
imagine the whole market is irrational, and you are the only one who is rational.

look at calendar here http://www.investing.com/currencies/gbp-usd as you notice, all red except for Core CPI which is 0.1 better than expected I bet this is why there are dip buyers for cable now...

remember my post earlier BOE is looking at that?

EDIT: Tbh, 1.4% core cpi y/y was expected by some analysts. so... either as expected or better than projections. gbp is being supported due to this tho all the other readings are red. the other readings = lead indicators = will take time to show up bad effects in Core CPI I would think

cpi m/m down and cpi y/y down that are the most important issues

core cpi has given as low impact

Dude, if it were that simple then everyone would be raking it in. Obviously that's not possible. The market is unpredictable. Get used to it. Try and ride the waves if you can see trends, but don't expect your predictions to be any more than a guess.

{quote} cpi m/m down and cpi y/y down that are the most important issues core cpi has given as low impact
thats why it is very misleading to look only at "high impact" when BOE is actually looking at core cpi (wrongly categorized as low impact). a few analysts pointed this out already yesterday.

and not good to only look at headline figures. i been screwed last year trading on claimant count and wage figures... it says high impact and better figures should be good, right? yet GBP would weaken a lot (when I was long)

Why? cos carney and friends gave dovish/pessimistic statement
