Everything was fine at Fri close but London Mayor's remarks killed the momentum and reversed.
He is popular but GB will stay in EU.This was market taking out weak longs.

In trading, you have to be defensive and aggressive at the same time

Wonder anyone entered long on that Friday evening spike? I certainly wouldn't. But the news of David Cameron get the EU deal sounded so promising.

Hi Davit it was but if you can look back and match up on the day chart the 10 20 emas did cross last week to give early indication that it could go long but they have now crossed again ,see if this 161% works out below 3940 i would say .regards B

Boris Johnson is a opportunist, I don't know exactly what his agenda is, but certainly he wants to replace David Cameron and he doesn't have the patience to wait until 2020.

I used to think he's special, but now he is just an average politician with an unfitting ambition and eager to cause destruction.

Not sure what happens to the SL is held over the weekend, due to the big gap, 136 pips on my chart, I reckon some broker will take 136 pips as loss even if your SL is less than 136 pips

Price is about 350 pips from all the longer MAs I am watching, normally there should be some retracement trade, but since the situation is quite chaotic, I wouldn't bet on it.

Multi year lows and sitting right off a major '00'.. With unfinished business c300 pips north (the Sunday open gap)

Time to feather in a long entry but knowing Cable's magnetic behaviour to the '00''s a run through 1.40 won't come as a surprise; if / when that occurs I'll add in

A loss they will take at the 1st tick of the market -136 . a gain they will try and honor the tgt if its less than the 1st tick of the market , ya have to argue to have them do it right , most brokers are getting better at it tho

Good to keep an old monthly chart around , not sure when I put the parallel lines on but it may not be far off. could be about 340 pips or so away from one hell of a long trade , counting down pip by pip lol, hope everybody is not trying to fight this too hard or better yet just short . cheers all .

I am just trading the EU and USD/CAD until the GU starts to level off and transition back into an uptrend, either that... Or play it long if it crashes. It's bee-lining for those very long term lows at the moment... If it doesn't stop, it could be there in days.
